[Verse 1]
A5                             D5                    A5
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
A5     D5                                            A5
I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
F#m                             D5                 A5
Asked the lord for mercy, said 'help me if you please'
 
 
[Verse 2]
A5                            D5                    A5
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
A5     D5                                           A5
I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
F#m                       D5                      A5
No one seemed to know me, everybody passed me by
 
 
[Verse 3]
A5                        D5                   A5
You can run, You can run, tell my friend Willy Brown
A5      D5                                     A5
You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willy Brown
F#m                                    D5                  A5
That I'm standing at the crossroads, I believe I'm sinking down
