The river 


  Em                    G             D                  C
I come from down in the valley, where mister when you're young
     G               Em  C                 G
They bring you up to do, like your daddy's done
       C                               G            F    Em
Me and Mary we met in Highschool, when she was just seventeen
     D                               G                     C
We'd ride out of that valley down to where the fields were green

        G           C         D                   G
We'd go down to the river and into the river we'd dive
    Em          C          D    Dsus4  D  C
Oh, down to the river we'd ride

     Em         G             D                   C
Then I got Mary pregnant and man that was all she wrote
    G                 Em                     C                 G
And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union car and a wedding coat
   C                                   G            F      Em
We went down to the courthouse and the judge put it all to rest
   D                                             G                  C
No weddingday smiles, no walk down the aisle, no flowers no wedding dress

                   G           C          D                   G
That night we went down to the river, and into the river we'd dive
       Em          C            D    Dsus4  D  C
Oooooh down to the river we did ride

  Em                   G
