Chords

Verse can be played with just the C-Chord, but this C/Am7/F combination sounds more interesting when playing it acoustic. [Intro] C [Verse 1]
C                              Am7
Five years old, skippin’ rocks across that Cypress Creek

F                                     C
Mama said, “Don’t you forget, you got church shoes on your feet”

C                               Am7
Daddy smoked them Salems up and wore them sideburns down

F                                       C
My world was only as big as that little blink-and-you-miss-it town
[Chorus]
        F           G           C                 Am
But we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F           G                 C
Yeah we ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F                  G             C                 Am
Driftin’ on to where we’re goin’, hangin’ on to what’s left behind

         F           G                 C
Yeah we ride, ride, ride that river of time
[Verse 2]
C                                Am7
Muscle car and a leather jacket, crusin’ the main street drag

F                                 C
Cool as a can of Copenhagen and a six pack in a bag

C                                         Am7
We were all about them college girls when they came home on break

F                                         C
Thought those days would last forever and growin’ up would wait
[Chorus]
        F           G           C                 Am
But we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F           G                 C
Yeah we ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F                  G             C                 Am
Driftin’ on to where we’re goin’, hangin’ on to what’s left behind

         F           G                 C
Yeah we ride, ride, ride that river of time
[Solo] F G C Am F G C [Verse 3]
     C                         Am7
Now daddy’s in his easy chair, mama’s hairs turned grey

     F                                     C
She laughs and says it’s all because of my young and wilder days

   C                                     Am7
I found a girl that makes me smile, I’ll never let her go

F                                     C
Growin’ old don’t scare me none, I believe in streets of gold
[Chorus]
            F           G           C                  Am
Just gonna ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F           G                 C
Yeah we ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F                  G             C                 Am
Driftin’ on to where we’re goin’, hangin’ on to what’s left behind

         F           G                 C
Yeah we ride, ride, ride that river of time

         F           G           C                 Am
Yeah we ride, ride, ride, ride, ride that river of time

       F           G                  C
Oh we ride, ride, ride that river of time
