River Song

	  		
 

 

 G          D 
This is my river hat 
 C                G 
I've had it for years 
 C                 G 
I've shared some good times in it 
Em                D 
& drank a lot of beers 
G               D               C                 G 
It fell in a camp fire on the banks of the Comal River 
C              G 
burned a hole clean through it 
      Em                      D 
Ol' Chuck said it matched my liver 


                         C    G 
So I think I'll raise a cold can 
         Em                   D 
for the things that keep us together 
                           C    G 
and i'll drink a toast to old friends 
         Em                  D 
and the times we'll always remember 
           C       G 
if you've ever had a good time here 
        D           Em 
get 'em up!  Sing along! 
C             D     G       Em    C 
This is our river song! 


verse 2: 

 G                D 
These are my old river shoes 
           C                G 
they dont match and I dont care 
    C                    G 
I searched all day and rescued Flip 
     Em                       D 
but Flop's still out there somewhere 
         G             D 
Like my Frio fishing buddy Mark 
      C                  G 
The Marines shipped him away 
 C                G 
Yeah, we sure do miss him 
       Em                  D 
but I'll see him one fine day. 



                         C    G 
So I think I'll raise a cold can 
         Em                   D 
for the things that keep us together 
                           C    G 
and I'll drink a toast to old friends 
         Em                  D 
and the times we'll always remember 
           C       G 
if you've ever had a good time here 
        D           Em 
get 'em up!  Sing along! 
C             D     C       
This is our river song!

Bridge: 
 G          D 
This is my river 
         C              G 
I don't own it but its mine 
            C   
along with every soul 
       G          Em 
who's ever rode a tube 
          D 
or wet a line 
   G                  D 
To me this place is sacred 
           C                  G 
There are those who feel the same 
      C                  G  
This river's just like holy water 
 Em                  D 
running through our veins 


 

                         C    G 
So I think I'll raise a cold can 
         Em                   D 
for the things that keep us together 
                           C    G 
and I'll drink a toast to old friends 
         Em                  D 
and the times we'll always remember 
           C       G 
if you've ever had a good time here 
        D           Em 
get 'em up!  Sing along! 
C             D     G       Em     
This is our river song! 
C             D     G       Em 
This is our river song!
