Mary grab the baby river's risin' 
E             F               G
Muddy water taking back the land
C                    G                  C
Old frame house she can't take no more beatin'
F                G                C
Ain't no use to stay and make a stand
C                         G                  C
Well the morning light showed water in the valley
E                   F               G
Daddy's grave just went below the line
C                    G                    C
Things they say you just can't take'em with you
F                       G              C
The flood will swallow all you leave behind
E                           B7
Won't be back to start all over 
E                               G
Cause what I've held before is gone
C               G                 C
Mary take the child the river's risin' 
E             F             G
Muddy water taking back my home
C                  G                    C
The road is gone just one way to leave here
F                G               C
Turn my back on what I've left below
C                G                 C
Shiftin' lands broken farms around me 
E              F              G
Muddy water's changin' all I know
C        G                   C
Hard to say just what I'm losin' 
E            F             G
Ain't never felt so all alone
C               G                 C
Mary take the child the river's risin' 
E             F             G
Muddy water taking back my home
E                           B7
Won't be back to start all over
E                            G
Cause what I felt before is gone
C                G                   C
Marry take the child, the river’s rising
E              F            G          E             F             G
Muddy water taking back my home. That muddy water taking back my home
E               F              G    C                 G              C
Muddy water’s taking back my home. Lord muddy water taking back my home
