Cross Road Blues piano leadsheet with chords

Level 4A125 BPMEric Clapton
Getting the sheet readyPip is finding the first note.

I went down to the crossroads,

fell down on my knees.

Down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees.

Asked the Lord above for mercy,

save 'ry me y if you please.

I went down to the crossroads,

tried to flag a ride.

Down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.

Nobody a seemed to know me,

save 'ry me y if me by.

I went down down to Rosedale,

take my rider by my side.

Goin' down to Rosedale, take my rider by my side.

You can still barrelhouse, baby, on the riverside.

You can run, you can run.

Tell my friend, poor Willie Brown.

Run, you can run.

Tell my friend, poor Willie Brown.

And I'm standin' at the crossroads,

believe I'm sinkin' down.
