	Am	C	G	F
	I come from down the	valley where	Mister, when you're	young,

	Am	C	F	C
They	bring you up to	do just	like your daddy	done.

	F	C	G	Am
Me and	Mary we met in high school When	she was just	seven	teen.

	Dm9	C	F
We'd	ride out of this valley down to	where the fields were	green.

	Am	F	G	C	Am	F	G	F
We'd go	down to the	river and	into the river we'd	dive, - Oh,	down to the	river we'd	ride.

	Am	C	G	F
Then	I got Mary	pregnant and	man that was all she	wrote,

	Am	C	F	C
And	for my nineteenth	birthday I got a union	card and a wedding	coat.

	F	C	G	Am
	We went down to the courthouse and the	judge put it	all to	rest.

	Dm9	C	F
	No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle, No	flowers, no wedding	dress.

	Am	F	G	C	Am	F	G	F
We'd go	down to the	river and	into the river we'd	dive, - Oh,	down to the	river we'd	ride.

	Am	C	G	F
I	got a job working con	struction for the	Johnstown Com	pany,

	Am	C	F	C
But	lately there ain't been	much work on ac	count of the econo	my.

	F	C	G	Am
Now	all them things that seemed so important, Well, mister, they	vanished right in	to the	air.

	Dm9	C	F
Now I just	act like I don't remember and Mary	acts like she don't	care.

	Am	F	G	C
We'd go	down to the	river and	into the river we'd	dive,

	Am	F	G	F
Oh,	down to the	river we'd	ride.

	Am	C	G	F
But I	remember us riding in my	brothers car, her body	tan and wet down by the	reservoir.

	Am	C	F	C
At	night on them banks I'd	lie awake and pull her	close just to feel each	breath she'd take.

	F	C	G	Am
Now those	memories come back to haunt me, They	haunt me	like a	curse.

	Dm9	C	F
Is a	dream a lie if it don't come true or	is it something	worse?

	Am	F	G	C
It sends me	down to the	river, though I know	the river is	dry!

	Am	F	G	F	Am	F	G	C
Oh,	down to the	river to	ni-i-i-	ight. -	Down to the	river my	baby and	I,

	Am	F	G	F
Oh,	down to the	river we	ri-i-i-	ide.
