Intro: G, C, G, C, G, D, G, C, G - 2X
G
Live in a river town, it's pretty little
     D                        C            G
It's high on the sides and it sinks in the middle
G
If it rains too much the river comes down
    D                      C        G
And fills up the low spots all over town

Chorus:
    C           G           
Get down river, river get down
          D               C         G
