[Verse 1]
  Em                    G
I come from down in the valley
      D/F#               Cadd9
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            G/F# Em
When she was just seventeen
     Am                              G
We'd ride out of this valley down to where the fields were
C
green

[Chorus]
        Em          C
We'd go down to the river
    D                   G
And into the river we'd dive
   Em          C          D
Oh down to the river we'd ride

[Verse 2]
Cadd9     Em             G
     Then I got Mary pregnant
       D                 Cadd9
And man that was all she wrote
    Em                     G                 C
And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a
            G
wedding coat
   C
We went down to the courthouse
             G       D/F#   Em
And the judge put it all to rest
   Am
No wedding day smiles no walk down the aisle
   G                  Cadd9
No flowers no wedding dress

[Chorus]
                   Em          C
That night we went down to the river
    D                   G      G/F#
And into the river we'd dive Oh
Em          C          D            Cadd9
down to the river we'd ride, ayyayah

[Verse 3]
  Em                        G            D
I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
Cadd9    Em                          G               C
     But lately there ain't been much work on account of
           G
the economy
       C
Now all them things that seemed so important
            G                   D/F#
Well mister they vanished right into the air
Em           Am
  Now I just act like I don't remember
     G                   C
Mary acts like she don't care

[Verse 4]
        Em                     G
But I remember us riding in my brother's car
         D                       Cadd9
Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
   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/F#   Em
They haunt me like a curse
     Am
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
   G               C
Or is it something worse

[Chorus]
              Em          C
That sends me down to the river
         D                 G
Though I know the river is dry
           G/F# Em          C       D
That sends me   down to the river tonight,
      C
ay ya yah
Em          C
Down to the river
   D        G   G/F#
My baby and I Oh
Em          C        D           C
down to the river we ride, ay ya yah
