.    Em                           G                 D                        C
I come from down in the valley, where mister when you’re young
.        Em                 G    C                    G
They bring you up to do, like your daddy done
.              C               C                       G               D/F#   Em
Me and Mary we met in high school, when she was just seventeen
.         Am                   Am               G                      C
We’d drive out of this valley, down to where the fields were green

 

.            Em          C           D                       G
We’d go down to the river, and into the river we’d dive
.            Em           C         D        C
Oh, oh, down to the river we’d ride

 

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

 

.            Em          C           D                       G
We’d go down to the river, and into the river we’d dive
.            Em           C         D        C
Oh, oh, down to the river we’d ride

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

 

.          Em                                 G                        D                              C
But I remember us riding in my brother’s car, her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
.    Em                          G                              C                               G
At night on them banks I’d lie awake, and pull her close just to feel each breath she’d take
.                 C                           C                    G             D/F#      Em
Now those memories come back to haunt me, they haunt me like a curse
.        Am                Am                   G                   C
Is a dream a lie if it don’t come true, or is it something worse

 






.                       Em         C                    D                 G
That sends me down to the river, though I know the river is dry
.                      Em           C         D        C
That sends me down to the river tonight
Em                 C          D       G
Down to the river, my baby and I
.            Em           C        D      C
Oh-oh, down to the river we ride
