Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

guitar):

 Blood and water bound to overflow

 Blood and water bound to overflow

 Well there’s no more high water

 But the Old Man’s just waiting, I know

 He was sent up on the levee

 Now they’ve gone up country

 They won’t do nothing for you now

 And don’t go asking me

 They’ve gone it’s all over here

 Sometimes I’d see her passing

 With the evening coming on

I’ve seen you on her pathway

 I’ve seen you at dawn

 Look over yonder at that empty shack

 You know as well as I do

They ain’t coming back

 They’re gone it’s all over here

Blood and water bound to overflow

 Blood and water bound to overflow

 Well there’s no more high water

 But the Old Man’s just waiting, I know

So many promises

 We broke them, every one

 Kept people on the levees

 Withsherrifs and shotguns

 They’re gone it’s all over here

 Look over yonder at that empty shack

You know as well as I do

 They ain’t coming back

 They’re gone it’s all over here

Blood and water bound to overflow

 Blood and water bound to overflow

 Well there’s no more high water

 No more high water

 Well there’s no more high water

 But the Old Man’s just waiting, I know
