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

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