Dm      F         G  Bb
Old man go to the river
C           A7       Dm   F7
To drop his bale of woes
Bb       G        F      Dm  
He could go if he wanted to
Bb          G7      F       Dm   G7 
It's just a boat to row you know    listen to me now
F          Bb            F   C       
Blue River keep right on rollin
    A7        Dm        F7
All along the shore line
Bb      C7             F   C         Dm
Keep us safe from the deep and  the dark
         Bb                      F    Bb     F  
Cause we don't want to stray too far
Dm        F           G      Bb
Spent the day with my old dog Mo
C       A7       Dm   F7
Down an old dirt road
Bb        G             F      Dm
What he's thinking lord I don't know
Bb          G                 F     Dm
But for him bet the time must go so slow
G
Don't you know
F          Bb            F   C       
Blue River keep right on rollin
    A7        Dm        F7
All along the shore line
Bb      C7             F   C         Dm
Keep us safe from the deep and  the dark
         Bb                      F    Bb     F  
Cause we don't want to stray too far

Harmonica break

Dm        F               G         Bb
Young Rob stands with his ax in his hand
 C                 A7        Dm  F7
Believin that the crops are in
Bb        G       F      Dm             
Fire wood stacked ten by ten
Bb                         G          
For the wife the folks the kids
F          Dm        G7
All of the kin and a friend  listen to me now
F          Bb            F   C       
Blue River keep right on rollin
    A7        Dm        F7
All along the shore line
Bb      C7             F   C         Dm
Keep us safe from the deep and  the dark
         Bb                      F    Bb     F  
Cause we don't want to stray too far
