I decided to put the chords up because no-one else has yet. I personallly think this 
song sounds better with capo on the second fret. and when you start the song hammer on the 
E string twice.

Capo 2nd
Intro: G,C,D,Em,C,D,G



G (320003@1)                           Cbaby's (x32010@1)gone and i don't know why
     D (xx0232@1)             Emshe (022000@1)headed out this morning
                              Clike (x32010@1)a rusty shot in a hollow sky
     D (xx0232@1)             Gshe (320003@1)left me without warning

G (320003@1)                           Csooner (x32010@1)than the dogs could bark
D (xx0232@1)             Emfaster (022000@1)than the sun rose
                              Cdown (x32010@1)to the banks in an old mule cart
     D (xx0232@1)             Gshe (320003@1)took a flat boat 'cross the shallows

Cleft (x32010@1)me in my tears to drown
     D (xx0232@1)           Emshe (022000@1)left a baby daughter
                                   Cnow (x32010@1)the river's wide and deep and brown
       D (xx0232@1)            Gshe's (320003@1)crossing muddy waters

G (320003@1)                           Ctobacco (x32010@1)standing in the fields
  D (xx0232@1)             Embe (022000@1)rotten come november
                              Cand (x32010@1)a bitter heart will not reveal
     D (xx0232@1)             Ga (320003@1)spring that love remembers

when that sweet brown girl of mine
hair black as a raven
we broke the bread and drank the wine
from a jug that she'd been saving

Cleft (x32010@1)me in my tears to drown
     D (xx0232@1)           Emshe (022000@1)left a baby daughter
                                   Cnow (x32010@1)the river's wide and deep and brown
       D (xx0232@1)            Gshe's (320003@1)crossing muddy waters

baby's crying and the daylight's gone
that big oak tree is groaning
in a rush of wind and a river song
i can hear my true love moaning

crying for her baby child
oh crying for her husband
crying for that rivers wild
to take her from her loved ones

Cleft (x32010@1)me in my tears to drown
     D (xx0232@1)           Emshe (022000@1)left a baby daughter
                                   Cnow (x32010@1)the river's wide and deep and brown
       D (xx0232@1)            Gshe's (320003@1)crossing muddy waters
                                   Cnow (x32010@1)the river's wide and deep and brown
       D (xx0232@1)            Gshe's (320003@1)crossing muddy waters
