James River Blues Chords

I tabbed this song basing it off the earlier James River Blues chords listed
here.  I personally like this version better, and think it sounds more melancholy
when performed solo, and is easier as it uses all open chords.  I put the Capo on
the first fret, but feel free to experiment and play around with it.  I strum it
with a Johnny Cash-esque one-two pattern, but feel free to try different things.  Enjoy!
 
Capo Fret 1
 
G               EM
James River blues
G                        EM
I just heard the awful news
G                          EM
I could steer around the rocks
G                              EM
But they're bustin' down the docks
 
G  EM  G  EM
 
G              EM
James River blues
G                     EM
That train came on through
G                       EM
And the works gotten slow
G                       EM
Now where's a boatman to go?
 
 
C                     D
I think I'll float on down
C            D
To Richmond town
C                     D
They don't need us anymore
                               C
Haulin' freight from shore to shore
                           D
That big iron hauls much more
                G
Than we ever could before
 
G  Em  G  Em
 
G                         Em
I've seen good men going wrong
G                          Em
I've seen bad ones get it right
G                      Em
As that river rolls along
G                       Em
I'll be stepping out tonight
 
C             D
On the cool flow
C                     D
Floatin' down down below
C                           D
The bridge till the waters edge
C                       D
From the ridge to the ledge
C                      D
From the hills to the sea
C                 D
I'll become a memory
 
G              EM
James River blues
G              EM
James River blues
G              EM
James River blues
 
End with a flourish
