Alison Krauss:
Catfish John
Please note, that some chords start in the middle of words. This
is shown by the chord being placed within a word at the point where
the chord begins, not at the start.
Slightly strange chord pattern. If you're after the normal A, D & E
pattern that's used a lot in these songs, you'll need a capo on fret
5 and go from A->E, D->A, G->D.

DMama said don't go Gnear that river
DDon't be hangin' around old catfish AJohn
DBut come the morning I'd Galways be there
DWalking in his footsteps in Asweet delta Ddawn.
Born a Gslave in the town of DVicksburg
Traded Gfor a chestnut Dmare
He Gnever spoke a word in Danger
Though his loAad was hard to Dbear.
DMama said don't go Gnear that river
DDon't be hangin' around old catfish AJohn
DBut come the morning I'd Galways be there
DWalking in his footsteps in Asweet delta Ddawn.
GDGDGDAD
DCatfish GJohn was a river Dhobo
He lived and Gdied on the river Dbend
Thinkin' Gback I still reDmember
I was proAud to be his Dfriend.
DMama said don't go Gnear that river
DDon't be hangin' around old catfish AJohn
DBut come the morning I'd Galways be there
DWalking in his footsteps in Asweet delta Ddawn.
GDGDGDAD
DLet me Gdream of another Dmorning
And a Gtime so long aDgo
When the Gsweet magnolias Dblossomed
And the cotton fieAlds were white as Dsnow.
DMama said don't go Gnear that river
DDon't be hangin' around old catfish AJohn
DBut come the morning I'd Galways be there
DWalking in his footsteps in Asweet delta Ddawn.
DCome the morning I'd Galways be there
DWalking in his footsteps in Asweet delta Ddawn.
