[Intro]
Fm7 Eb Bb Eb
[Verse]
Eb I have seen the paddle wheelers Ab Cm Rolling south on a summers' day Fm7 Bb I've seen the lovers at the guardrails Ab Bb Eb With stars in their lemonade
[Verse]
Eb And I've heard the hobo's gather Ab Cm Heard their banjo's brace the blade Fm7 Bb Heard them sing about the river Ab Bb Eb Called it the lazy man's parade
[Chorus]
Eb Sing me that song about the river Ab Cm Green going away Fm7 Eb I always did feel like a drifter Bb Eb 'Bout this time of day
[Instrumental]
Fm7 Eb Bb Eb
[Verse]
Eb Last night I stood by the highway Ab Cm Pretended I was on my way Fm7 Bb You know a hundred thousand headlights Ab Bb Eb Couldn't match the milky way
[Verse]
Eb And when the moonlight touches the water Ab Cm Surely something touches me Fm7 Bb And I go reaching for the river Ab Bb Eb Like it's reaching for the sea
[Chorus]
Eb Sing me that song about the river Ab Cm Green going away Fm7 Eb I always did feel like a drifter Bb Eb 'Bout this time of day
[Bridge]
Ab Db Some things go on forever Bbm Ab Eb The truth don't ever stray Fm7 Eb The wind may brush the water Fm7 Bb But the river won't persuade
[Chorus]
Eb So, Sing me that song about the river Ab Cm Green going away Fm7 Eb I always did feel like a drifter Bb Eb 'Bout this time of day Fm7 Eb Yes, I always did feel like a drifter Bb Eb About this time of day
