Harlem River Blues
INTRO: G C G D G
CHORUS:
G
Lord I'm goin' uptown
C
To the Harlem River to drown
G
Dirty water gonna cover me over
D G
And I'm not gonna make a sound
G
I'm on a roll, Mama, I gotta go
C
Gotta get there while I still can
G
Troubled days are behind me now
D
And I know they're gonna let me in
G
When you see me walkin up the FDR
C
Just a-singin' and clappin my hands
G
Tell my mama I loved her, tell my father I tried
D G
To give my money to my baby to spend
CHORUS
INTRO
Good times come and they go
Even a good man'll break
He'll let his troubles bury him whole
Even though he knows what's at stake
So I'm taking no chances, I'm carryin' over
While I'm still good in His grace
And I'm no fool Mama I know the difference
Between tempting and choosing my fate
CHORUS
INTRO (2x)
