Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu Down to the River Oleh Pat Green

G (mute)
Take me down to the river

Where I can hold your body close to mine

We’d listen to the rhythm

Of that old water rollin

You can stay with me until the morning light

I found you in a Louisiana roadside park

Beat up, broke down no place left to turn

I took you back to Texas under a harvest moon

We found a little place to call our own

We shared all the hopes and dreams of our younger years

Married at the tender age of twenty-one

Rollin’ down the highways, dirt roads and the byways

Would you like to drive so I would go shotgun

CHORUS

We’d go down to the river

Where I could hold your body close to mine

We’d listen to the rhythm

Of that old water rollin

You can stay with me until the morning light

Somewhere through the year somebody turned your head

And has taken my sweet love so far from me

Yeah he swept you off to Boulder

Where the air it gets much colder

Than this southern boy would ever like to see

I think of calling you on lonely nights

When being alone gets the best of me

Yeah but this here whiskey bottle

Will take me to a place

Where you and I will always be

CHORUS

When you came back home everybody said I was a fool

‘Cause I took you back without a word to say

But I couldn’t go on living thinkin’ about all I was missin'

And I dont give a damn about what those people say.

CHORUS

We’d go down to the river

Where I could hold your body close to mine

We’d listen to the rhythm

Of that old water rollin

You can stay with me until the morning light

I wanna go down to the river

Take me down to the river

I wanna go down to the river
