Deep Dark Water
Written and recorded by Jim Reeves
G C
Alone and so lonesome bored and so blue
G A7 D7
I got the urge to ramble so I took a drink or two
G B7 C G
It tempted me to trifle then my true heart went astray
C G D7 G
So I wandered in dark water and just threw my life away
D7 G
I know that it was wrong to fool around this way so long
A7 D7
Someone was sawing on the limb that I was sitting on
G B7 C G
I looked down and I found I could drown in deep dark water
C G D7 G
So I cried when I realized I couldn't swim
C
A fool and his money calls for whiskey and for gin
G A7 D7
Filled to the gills and falling for the weaknesses as a man
G B7 C G
From one fool to another wrong is never right
C G D7 G
I ignored advice from mother and brother look at me tonight
D7 G
Unsteady as I go with deep dark water down below
A7 D7
They keep sawing louder on my limb and soon I'll have to go
G B7 C G
Life's been small hear my call as I fall in deep dark water
C G D7 G
Don't be a would-be king and tumble from your throne
