verse 1 
C                                 G 
Well a town's a town when you're upside down, 
F                    Am      Am7         F 
Lay your bones on a bed, it's that easy 
G                  C     G 
To have a kind of home 

C                        G 
Where the money goes I know too well 
F                      Am        Am7         F 
Spreads out like the jobs I've worked so many 
      C                  G 
Hard days don't seem to end 

Pre-Chorus 1 
          Am      Em     F        C 
Well I'm wasting time, wasting time 
      F              C             G 
And I only know one way to go to start again 

       C             G 
Let it roll, let it roll 
         Am            Em 
Down the banks of the Ohio 
         F              C 
When you can't rely on what you make 
    F               G 
To pay the rent on time 

       C       G 
So I'm goin' away, 
     Am           Em 
Down to the fortifio (?) 
   F                  C       G 
Oh way down there in Cairo, IL 
          C 
I'm gonna stay

verse 2 
     C                        G 
Now what do you say when the bottom falls out, 
F             Am        Am7   F 
Try to make amends with anybody 
      G               C      G 
That ever caused you pain 

        C                             G 
It's no fault of mine that it should end this way 
F                 Am       Am7   F 
And I wont' apologize to anybody 
       C                   G 
For a thing that I can't change 

Pre-Chorus 2 
                Am        Em           F       C 
See I'm used to bein' alone, used to bein' alone, 
             F              C              G 
See it's the only way that I know how to get to where I'm goin', 

C G Let it roll, let it roll Am Em Down the banks of the Ohio F C When you can't rely on what you make F G To pay the rent on time C G So I'm goin' away, Am Em Down to the fortifio (?) F C G Oh way down there in Cairo, IL C I'm gonna stay
Fiddle break C G F Am Am7 F C G C G F Am Am7 F C G Pre-Chorus 3 Am Em F C Woah Cairo, you build your levies tall, F C I want to sit beside the water G And forget about it all.
C G Let it roll, let it roll Am Em Down the banks of the Ohio F C When you can't rely on what you make F G To pay the rent on time C G So I'm goin' away, Am Em Down to the fortifio (?) F C G Oh way down there in Cairo, IL F I'm gonna stay
