dry river Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I was born by the river,
[G]it was paved with ce[D]ment
I was [G]born by the river,
it was paved [D]with cement
Still I [C]stand in that dry [A]river,
dreamin' that I was [D]soakin' wet
[G]Someday it's gonna [D]rain,
[G]someday it's gon[D]na pour
[G]Someday that old [D]dry river,
it [C]won't be [G]dry any[D]more
I used to play in the orange groves
[G]Till the bulldozed all[D] the trees
I used [G]to play in the orange groves
Till the bulldozed [D]all the trees
But I'd [C]stand among those dead stumps
[A]and smell the blossoms
on [D]the leaves
[G]Someday it's gonna [D]rain,
[G]someday it's gon[D]na pour
[G]Someday all [D]those dead trees,
they [C]won't be [G]dead anymore
[D]I f[G]ell[D][G][D][G][D]
[C][A]
[D]in love with a woman,
[G]but she did not [D]fall for me
I fell [G]in with you baby,
but you did not fall [D]for me
Now I'm [C]dry as that old river,
[A]and I'm as dead as those old[D] trees
[G]Someday it's gonna [D]rain,
[G]someday it's gonna [D]pour
[G]Someday this [D]old heart of mine's
gonna [C]fall in [G]love once [D]more
[G]Someday it's gonna [D]rain
[G]Someday it's gonna [D]pour
[G]Someday this old [D]town river
Well, it [C]won't [G]be dry anymore
[D]Won[C]'t be jac[G]k any[D]more
[C]Won't be [G]jack anymore
[D]Won[C]'t be jac[G]k anymore
[D]Won[C]'t be [G]jack anymor[D]e
[C]Won't [G]be jack any[D]more
Won't be jack anymore
