RIO GRANDE
Dave Alvin - D
D Bm
I guess she put her blue dress on, and walked out late last night
D Bm
Left one silk stocking, dangling from the bedside light
Em G
I sobered up and called her name, just before the dawn
Em G
I saw her footprints in the sand, and knew that she had gone
D Em G
Down the Rio Grande
I pulled out of Albuquerque, prayin’ I wasn’t late
I got a couple cups of coffee, at some joint off the interstate
Passin’ through Las Cruces, I swear I saw her car
She always said she’d go someday, but never said how far
Down the Rio Grande
Chorus
Em A D Bm
Maybe she’s in Brownsville, she’s got some family there
Em A D Bm
She was always talkin’ ‘bout, the salty Gulf Coast air
Em G D Em G
Where the river ends, down the Rio Grande
I saw an old grey heron, flyin’ south against the wind
Storm clouds over Juarez, rollin’ east to the Big Bend
I drove down Highway Ninety, through a dusty desert wind
I didn’t know where it would lead me, or if I’d find her again
Down the Rio Grande
I lit my last cigarette, as the sky began to clear
Black mountains up ahead, a red sundown in my mirror
Lost all the border, ‘tween the future and the past
One fading slowly, and the other comin’ fast
Down the Rio Grande
Repeat Chorus
I bought a bottle in Del Rio, and I parked on the side of the road
I stayed up all night, starin’ at the lights of Mexico
And I walked down to border bridge, at the break of day
And I threw that empty bottle off, and I watched it float away
Down the Rio Grande
Repeat Chorus…Where the river ends
