BAEBAE
[Verse]
F#m7
She was her daddy's little girl,
E
Getting to know the big wide world in a little town.
F#m7
Feels so right, can't be wrong,
E
But it won't take the word too long to get around.
DbmAbm7
Tears were rolling down her face, she'd brought the family disgrace,
ABsus
Then we watched the tail-lights fade away.
[Chorus]
A
Down the river road, river road,
E
Daddy took her down that river road.
A
Frightened of the stones they'd throw,
BAEBAE
Down that river road, down that river road.
[Verse]
F#m7
Ramblin' Jack he drank like a fish,
E
In a rundown shack with a brand new satellite dish.
F#m7
He lived on the water all of his life,
E
TV dinners with his brand new TV wife.
DbmAbm7
You know he's always carried on since Ramblin' Jack was Little John,
ABsus
The day his daddy's boat went down with all the family.
[Chorus]
A
Down the river road, the river road,
E
Jack's seen 'em come and he's seen 'em go.
A
Nobody lasts too long you know,
BAEBAE
Down that river road, down that river road.
[Instrumental]
AEABAEBAE
[Verse]
F#m7
He had a black XY with a 351,
E
As dangerous as a loaded gun.
F#m7
His cigarettes rolled up in his sleeve,
E
Looking way to hard to believe.
DbmAbm7
He hasn't seen his Mary-Anne since the whole thing hit the fan,
ABsus
He thinks about what might have been as he puts the pedal down....
[Verse]
A
That river road, river road,
E
The wheels are turnin' on the river road.
A
Leaving everything he knows,
BAE
Down that river road.
A
The river road, the river road,
E
The wheels are turnin' on the river road.
A
Just another episode,
BAEBAE
Down that river road, down that river road,
BAE
Down that river road.
