Cross Road Blues

E7

I went to the crossroads

A7 E7

Fell down on my knees

A7

I went to the crossroads

E7

Fell down on my knees

H7

Asked the lord above "Have mercy,

A7 E7

save poor Bob, if you please"

Mmmmm, standin' at the crossroad

I tried to flag a ride

Standin' at the crossroad

I tried to flag a ride

Didn't nobody seem to know me

Everybody pass me by

Mmmm, the sun goin' down, boy

Dark gon' catch me here

Oooo, eeee

Boy, dark gon' catch me here

I haven't got no lovin' sweet woman that

Love and feel my care

You can run, you can run

Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown

You can run, hmmmm

Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown

Lord i'm standin' at the crossroad, babe

I believe i'm sinkin' down
