F#7                                B7                     F#7  
Well it rained five days and the skies turned dark as night  
B7                                                        F#7  
Yes it rained five days and the skies turned dark as night  
C#7                     B7                           F#7  
There's a trouble takin' place in the lowlands at night  
F#7                            B7                     F#7  
I woke up this mornin', couldn't even get out of my door  
B7                                                     F#7  
Yes woke up this mornin', couldn't even get out of my door  
C#7                       B7                       F#7  
Trouble make a poor boy wonder where he want to go  
F#7                                B7                     F#7  
And it thundrin and lightnin' and the wind began to blow  
B7                                                      F#7  
Yes it thundered and lightnined' and the wind began to blow  
C#7                     B7                           F#7  
And there's a thousand people ain't got no place to go  
F#7                                B7                     F#7  
Well they rowed a little boat about five miles 'cross the pond  
B7                                                        F#7  
Yes they rowed a little boat about five miles 'cross the pond  
C#7                     B7                           F#7  
Yes I packed my clothes, throwed them in it and they rowed me along  
F#7                         B7               F#7  
I went and stood upon some high old lonesome hill  
B7                                                     F#7  
You know I went and stood upon some high old lonesome hill  
C#7                                     F#7   (Fill here)  
Yes I looked on the old house were I used to live  
F#7                                B7               F#7  
Backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go  
B7                                                  F#7  
Backwater blues done call me to pack my things and go  
C#7                     B7                           F#7  
Yes my house fell down and I can't live there no more  
F#7                  B7                  F#7  
Mmm, I can't move no more  
B7                                           F#7  
Mmm, I can't move no more  
C#7                     B7                           F#7  
Yes my house washed away and I can't live there no more
