Chords

[Intro] C F C G C [Verse 1]
          C
There's a natural wonder between us

       F
But it doesn't seem natural to me

     C
That you can walk away from the love we made

G7
Here in Tennessee
[Verse 2]
C
Leave everything that we worked for

   F
To start another life

  C
I saw you drive across the Memphis bridge

      G7               C
But I don't believe my eyes
[Chorus]
          F                        C
I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi

            G7                                    C  C7
I can see a big river barge headin' down to New Orleans

              F
I can see the cotton fields on the other side

        C         G     Am
And the sun going down again

             F               G7
Oh I can see Arkansas, but I still don't see

        F       G7         C
Why the love we had should end
[Interlude] F C G C [Verse 3]
      C
If it proved how much I love you

    F
I'd swim this ol' river tonight

    C
I'd bet my soul against the undertow

        G7
For the chance to hold you tight
[Verse 4]
            C
But there's more than a river between us

    F
And I can't swim that far

   C
As hard as I try I just can't drown

    G7                    C
The memories of where you are
[Chorus]
              F                        C
Oh, I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi

            G7                                    C  C7
I can see a big river barge headin' down to New Orleans

              F
I can see the cotton fields on the other side

        C         G     C
And the sun going down again

              F               G7
Oh, I can see Arkansas, but I still don't see

        F       G7         C
Why the love we had should end
[Chorus]

Oh, I can see Arkansas across the Mississippi

            G7                                    C  C7
I can see a big river barge headin' down to New Orleans

              F

And the sun going down again

              F               G7

Oh, I can see Arkansas, but I still don't see

Why the love we had should end
