G D G 1. Way down along Sycamore SloughC G A white man sings the bluesG D G Selling roses of papier macheC D With flecks of starlight dewEm D I swiped a bunch and I threw it your wayC Bm Where hazy moonlight glowedC G A7/G C/G G R: Way down, down along lazy river road 2. Way down along Shadowfall Ward End of the avenue Run hide seek in your own backyard Mama's backyard won't do All night long I sang love's sweet song Down where the water flowed R: Way down...Am D *: Moonlight wanes as hound dogs bayEm B Em Never quite catch the tuneAm D Stars fall down in buckets like rainEm B Em Till there ain't no standing roomAm B Bright blue boxcars, train by trainAm B Rattle while dreams unfoldC G A7/G C/G G Way down, down along lazy river road 3. Way down along Seminole Square Belly of the river tide Call for me and I will be there For the price of a taxi ride Night time double clutches into today Like a truck downshifting its load R: Way down... Solo *: Moonlight wanes as hound dogs bay... 4. Thread the needle right through the eye The thread that runs so true All the others I let pass by I only wanted you I never cared much for careless love But, oh, how your bright eyes glowed R: Way down...
