 Rick plays his guitar like what is shown under. 
 To get the correct rhytme count one bar like  
 |one-and-two-and-three-and-four-and| where Rick strikes 
 his chord on each "and" mentioned in a bar.  Also 
 move your plectrum from down and up while hitting the strings. 
 The '&'s marks the 4 flats in each bar.

verses: 
------- 
B 
Down at Backwater junction 

Rolling down the line 

In the dark early morning 

I heard the one-forty-nine 
       E  
I was walking down the highway 
                      D-E-D- 
Needed somewhere to go 
   B 
A lady laid beside me 

And she invited me home 
            A 
She led me cold, tired and hungry 
E                   B  
Down the backwater road 

B 
In a house on the corner 

looking over the track 

I woke up with a fever 

And a pain in my back 
         E 
She was lying there beside me 
                        D-E-D- 
My fever started to grow 
B 
Bad a funny feeling 

But the lady said no 
     A 
The lover needs a doctor 
E                   D   (D-D-D-D) 
Down the Backwater Road

B 
Backwater doctor 
You've got me breathing in time 
It's ten-thirty in the morning 
And I'm feeling alright 
I went back to my lady 
But I wasn't to know 
Lady left this morning 
And she's not coming home 

I was cold when she left me 
Down the Backwater Road
