Intro.: | (C) (G) (Bm) (D) | (C) (G) (Bm) (D) | (C) (G) (Bm) (D) | (C) ---
4 a. (C)m. comes awful early, and I was dead on my feet
But if you gonna (G) catch a biggest fish
You gotta (D)lose a little sleep
Well, I (C)pack my gear and a couple beers
I (Em)headed for my favorite spot
Well, I (G)curse my luck when I saw his truck (F#dim)right where I pulled off
Wish (Em)open to have the (D)river to myself that (C) day
(Chorus)
�Cause the river don�t (G)talk, the river don�t (C)care
Where you�ve (G)been, what you�ve done
Why it (D)is your standin� there
It just flows on(Em) by whisperin� to your (C)soul
It�s gonna be al-(G)right,(D) the (C)river just (G)knows (G) (Bm) (D) | (C) (G) (Bm) (D)
The way the (C)sun bounced off the water
I couldn�t wholely make him out
But I could (G)see he had a fish on
A (D)big ole rainbow trout
The (C)fight went on forever
And as he headed down my way, I saw his
(G) military hair cut and the (F#dim)new scars on his face
Right (Em)then I knew what (D)brought him to this (C)place
(Chorus)
You know the river don�t (G)talk, the river don�t (C)care
Where you�ve (G)been, what you�ve done
Don�t know why it (D)is your standin� there
It just flows on(Em) by whisperin� to your (C)soul
It�s gonna be al-(G)right,(D) the (C)river just (G)knows
He held that (F)fish down in the water
And it (Em)caused to back the line
He said (G) �Help, you get your wind back
�Cause (F#dim)you help me get mine�
And all (Em)I could think to (D)say was �Welcome (C)home�
But I (Em)think that river (D)said it best (C) on its own
�Cause the river don�t (G)talk, you know the river don�t (C)care
Where you�ve (G)been, what�s you�ve done
Why it (D)is your standin� there
It just flows on (Em)by whisperin� to your (C)soul
It�s gonna be al-(G)right, (D) the (C)river just (G)knows
It�s gonna be alright, (D) the (C)river just knows
