As recorded by Thomas Rhett (2025 release) [Intro] D [Verse 1]
D
We were sittin' there on the porch

     Em
On a Sunday afternoon

        G
We were soakin' up the sun while we

     A
Were waitin' on the moon

               D
And she said, "Honey, when you quit singin'

        Em
And you put down that guitar

        G
And you look into the future

A
Tell me where we are"
[Chorus]
           D
And I said, "I see me and you on a river

Em7
A little house with a couple of chairs

G
Homemade chili and cold beer for dinner

A
We'll count the stars and the grays in our hair and

D
We'll spend our mornings walkin' with Jesus

Em7
We'll spend our evenings talkin' to God

G
Close your eyes, baby, can't you see us

A
Watchin' sunsets like it's our job?

   Em7                     G
If I could paint a perfect picture

        A               D
I'd see me and you on a river"
[Verse 2]
D
I'm thinkin' somewhere in Montana

          Em7
But hell, anywhere would do

   G
As long as it's got your green eyes, baby

  A
I know I'm gonna love the view

                 D
And we'll have a couple of Palominos

      Em7
Teach grandkids how to fish

  G
I know it seems like a long way off

         A
But it's right around the bend
[Chorus]
           D
And I said, "I see me and you on a river

Em7
A little house with a couple of chairs

G
Homemade chili and cold beer for dinner

A
We'll count the stars and the grays in our hair and

D
We'll spend our mornings walkin' with Jesus

Em7
We'll spend our evenings talkin' to God

G
Close your eyes, baby, can't you see us

A
Watchin' sunsets like it's our job?

   Em7                     G
If I could paint a perfect picture

        A           D
I'd see me and you on a river"
[Interlude]
Em7    G    A
  Oh
[Chorus]
D
Yeah, I see me and you on a river

Em7
And we when I run outta words that rhyme

G
You pick the spot and I'll pull the trigger

A
I'd paint our names on a mailbox sign

D
And we'll spend our mornings walkin' with Jesus

Em7
I'll kiss you close when the daylight's gone

G
Close your eyes, baby, can't you see us

A
Watchin' sunsets like it's our job?

   Em7                     G
If I could paint a perfect picture

        A               D
I'd see me and you on a river
[Outro]
D
Oh, yeah, on a river
