   Em
My mother came to Hazard when I was just seven

   Em                                 D
Even then the folks in town said with prejudiced eyes

     Asus2
That boy's not right

Em
Three years ago when I came to know Mary

Em                                        D
First time that someone looked beyond the rumours and the lies

            A
And saw the man inside
[Chorus]
   C                        G
We used to walk down by the river

    C                         Em
She loved to watch the sun go down

   C                      G      Em
We used to walk along the ri ... ver

    D         C               Em
And dream our way out of this town
[Interlude] Em D G Asus2 G Em [Verse]
Em
No one understood what I felt for Mary

Em                                        D
No one cared until the night she went out walking all alone

    Asus2
And never came home

Em
Man with a badge came knocking next morning

Em                                  D
Here was I surrounded by a thousand fingers suddenly

        A
Pointed right at me
[Chorus]
  C                       G
I swear I left her by the river

  C                         Em
I swear I left her safe and sound

  C                      G      Em
I need to make it to the ri ... ver

    D          C            Em
And leave this old Nebraska town
[Bridge]
D                C
I think about my life gone by

Em               D 
How it's done me wrong

D                     C
There's no escape for me this time

Bm        C           G      D        Em
All of my rescues are gone,      long gone
[Interlude] Em D Asus2 Em D A [Chorus]
  C                       G
I swear I left her by the river

  C                         Em
I swear I left her safe and sound

  C                      G     Em
I need to make it to the ri ... ver

    D          C            Em
And leave this old Nebraska town

Em   D
