##The river (Bruce Springsteen)I [Em]come from down in the [G]valley, where [D]mister when you're [C]young
They [G]bring you up to [Em]do, [C]like your daddy's [G]done
Me and [C]Mary we met in Highschool, when [G]she was just [F]seven[Em]teen
We'd [D]ride out of that valley down to [G]where the fields were [C]green

We'd go [G]down to the [C]river and [D]into the river we'd [G]dive
Oh, [Em]down to the [C]river we'd [D]ride [Dsus4]       [D]   [C]

Then [Em]I got Mary [G]pregnant and m[D]an that was all she [C]wrote
And [G]for my nineteenth [Em]birthday I got a union [C]car and a wedding [G]coat
We [C]went down to the courthouse and the [G]judge put it [F]all to [Em]rest
No [D]weddingday smiles, no walk down the aisle, no [G]flowers no wedding [C]dress
That night we went [G]down to the [C]river, and [D]into the river we'd [G]dive
Oooooh [Em]down to the [C]river we did [D]ride [Dsus4]       [D]   [C]
I [Em]got a job working con[G]struction for the [D]Johnstown Company [C]
But [G]lately there ain't been [Em]much work on ac[C]count of the econo[G]my
Now [C]all them things that seemed so important, well mister [G]they vanished [F]right into the [Em]air
Now I just [D]act like I don't remember Mary [G]acts like she don't [C]care
But I re[G]member us riding in my [Em]brother's car, her body [D]tan and wet down at the [C]reservoir
At [G]night on them banks I'd [Em]lie awake, and pull her [C]close just to feel each [G]breath she'd take
Those [C]memories come back to haunt me, they [G]haunt me [F]like a [Em]curse
Is a [D]dream a lie if it don't come true, or [G]is it something [C]worse
That sends me [G]down to the [C]river, though I [D]know the river is [G]dry
That sends me [Em]down to the [C]river to[D]night [Dsus4]       [D]
[G]Down to the [C]river, my [D]baby and [G]I
Oh, [Em]down to the [C]river we [D]ride [Dsus4]       [D]   [G]
