Muddy Water
-----------
As it heard from Cave's version
on "Kicking Against The Pricks" album.
Em H7 Em
Mary, grab the baby, the river's rising
G H7 Em
Muddy water taking back the land
H7 Em
The old-frame house, she can't take-a one more beating
G H7 Em
Ain't no use to stay and make a stand
Well the morning light shows water in the valley
Daddy's grave just went below the line
Things to say, you just can't take'em with ya
This flood will swallow all you've left behind
G
E|-0-2-3-|
G D
Won't be back to start all over
G H7
Cause what I felt before is gone
Mary, take the child, the river's rising
Muddy water taking back my home
The road is gone, there's just one way to leave here
Turn my back on what I've left below
Shifting land, broken farms around me
Muddy water's changing all I know
It's hard to say just what I'm losing
Ain't never felt so all alone
Mary, take the child, the river's rising
Muddy water taking back my home
Won't be back to start all over
Cause what I felt before is gone
Mary, take the child, the river's rising
Muddy water's changing all I know
Muddy water's changing all I know
Lord, this muddy water is taking back my home
