Intro
Em G D C Am G C C
[Verse]
Em G D C
I come from down in the valley Where mister, when you're young
Em G C G
They bring you up to do like your daddy done
C G D Em
Me and Mary we met in high school When she was just seventeen
Am G C
We'd drive out of this valley down to where the fields were green
[Chorus]
Em C D G
We'd go down to the river And into the river we'd dive
Em C D C
Oh down to the river we’d ride
[Verse]
Em G D C
Then I got Mary pregnant And man, that was all she wrote
Em G C G
And for my 19th birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
C G D Em
We went down to the courthouse And the judge put it all to rest
Am
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle
G C
No flowers, no wedding dress
[Chorus]
Em C
That night we went down to the river
D G
And into the river we'd dive
Em C D C
Oh down to the river we did ride

[Verse]
Em G D C
I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
Em G C G
But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy
C
Now all them things that seemed so important
G D Em
Well mister they vanished right into the air
Am G C
Now I just act like I don't remember Mary acts like she don't care
[Bridge]
Em G D
But I remember us riding in my brother's car Her body tan and wet down at
C Em G
the reservoir At night on them banks I'd lie awake
C G
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
C
Now those memories come back to haunt me
G D Em
They haunt me like a curse
Am G C
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true Or is it something worse
[Chorus]
Em C D G
That sends me down to the river Though I know the river is dry
Em C D C
That sends me down to the river tonight
Em C D G
Down to the river my baby and I
Em C D C
Oh down to the river we ride Ooh..
