Intro
| Em | G | D | C G | Am | G | C | C
Verse
Em G I come from down in the valley D C(9) Where mister, when you're young Em G C G They bring you up to do like your daddy done C Me and Mary we met in high school G D Em When she was just seventeen Am G C We'd drive out of this valley down to where the fields were green
Chorus
Em C We'd go down to the river D G And into the river we'd dive Em C D C(9) Oh down to the river we'd ride
Verse
Em G Then I got Mary pregnant D C(9) And man, that was all she wrote Em G C G And for my 19th birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat C We went down to the courthouse G D Em And the judge put it all to rest Am No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle G C(9) No flowers, no wedding dress
Chorus
Em C That night we went down to the river D G And into the river we'd dive Em C D C(9) Oh down to the river we did ride

Verse
Em G D C I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company Em G C G But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy C Now all them things that seemed so important G D Em Well mister they vanished right into the air Am Now I just act like I don't remember G C Mary acts like she don't care (3:04) Em G But I remember us riding in my brother's car D C Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir (3:13) Em G At night on them banks I'd lie awake C G And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take C Now those memories come back to haunt me G D Em They haunt me like a curse Am Is a dream a lie if it don't come true G C(9) Or is it something worse
Chorus
Em C That sends me down to the river D G Though I know the river is dry Em C D G That sends me down to the river tonight Em C D G Down to the river my baby and I Em C D C(9) Oh down to the river we ride
