Gillian Welch – Riverboat Song chords
Chords:
[Intro] D A D [Verse]DThought I'd sing to the riverG DJust cheer her on her wayDShe's a blue old girlD AThat no one cares to travel on these daysDI know some say she's lazyG DShe was fast enough beforeDHalf of every cotton cropA DCame floating past my doorGAnd there used to be a dance hallDWhen the gambling boat still ranEThe air was full of lamp lightAAnd the sound of dixie landDBut the river met her god now?G DShe's a melancholy girlDShe never sees the delta queenE AOr the Alabama pearlDAnd she looks like she's lonelyG DAs she tumbles to the seaDShe's headed down to MexicoA DTo find some company[Interlude] D D G D D D E A D D G D D D A D [Verse]GWell the only time I cursed herG DWas the spring of '65EShe rolled across my bean fieldE ALooking more than ten miles wideDWell I shoulda seen it comin'G DAs it does from time to timeDWomen's gonna make a fussD E AWhen no one pays her any mindDSo thought I'd sing to the riverG DJust cheer her on her wayDShe's a blue old girlD A Dthat no one cares to travel on these daysDShes a blue old girlDthat no one caresA Dto travel on these days[Outro] D A D
