River Winding

(início)

INTRO: G
             Em
River winding through this mill town
   C                    G
My hometown is dark by Four
              Em                                 C
Winter coming, the mills have long shut down and
                D
No one's working anymore
      Em
And I drove by McDonalds
      C
And a long line just followed
       G                   D     G
From a posting today for a job
             Em
River winding through the darkness
  C                 G
Always to rise and fall
              Em
River winding, you wouldn't believe
         C                      G
How many souls were glued right here
              Em                        C
Winter coming, everyone's got shoes but
                    D
No one knows how to get through the year
       Em
When I drove by my high school
        C                       G
And the students are so few now
                    D        G
So many families have left
             Em
River winding through the darkness
    C                          Em
Sometimes cursed and sometimes blessed
INSTRUMENTAL: C  G  D  G  Em  C  G
              Em                          C
River winding, sparkling in the moonlight
                   G
Cleaner than it's been
                                Em                    C
But the main street store fronts are mostly empty now
                     D
Hand written signs, 'Space For Rent'
      Em
And I drove by the factories
        C
And the windows were broken
          G                        D    G
Where the lights used to be always on
             Em
River winding through the darkness
  C             Em     D      G
Always to move along, along
