Lirik & Kunci Gitar The River
[Intro]
Em G D C Am G C C
[Verse 1]
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 2]
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
[Instrumental]
