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

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