Riverbank

D
If there was ever a morning when the fish might bite,
     G
it'd be right now
D                                      G
Any other time we'd done had our lines cast out
Bm                         A
Sippin? on a jug of mama's sweet iced tea
         G              D/F#
Catchin? them 'ol cats
             Em            A
Why couldn't today be like that?

                  D
I wish this was a riverbank
             G
Instead of a graveyard
               D
I wish we were sittin? and fishin?
                      G
and this wouldn't be so hard
          Bm                     A
It was my favorite thing that we used to do,
    G            D/F#                 Em
but now we can't;     I wish you were here
A                                   Bm A G D/F# Em
  and I wish this were a riverbank

D                                             G
Remember the day when I baited my hook with a chunk of ham
  D                                           G
I got a big bite and he yanked the pole right outta my hand
     Bm                    A
Well you jumped up and you grabbed the net
       G                D/F#
and we both jumped in
             Em                A
yeah, we got wet oh but we got him

                  D
I wish this was a riverbank
             G
Instead of a graveyard
               D
I wish we were sittin? and fishin?
                      G
and this wouldn't be so hard
          Bm                     A
It was my favorite thing that we used to do,
    G            D/F#                 Em
but now we can't;     I wish you were here
A
  and I wish this were a riverbank

           G                D/F#          Em         D/F#
I know you wouldn't want me sittin? 'round and bein' sad
G             A           D
You taught me better than that
       G                 D/F#
So I'm leavin' now gonna head on out
    Em             D/F#               C
And try to catch a few  and while I'm there
G                    A
I'll cast a line for you

                  D
I wish this was a riverbank
             G
Instead of a graveyard
               D
I wish we were sittin? and fishin?
                      G      A    G  A
and this wouldn't be so damn hard
          Bm                     A
It was my favorite thing that we used to do,
    G            D/F#                 Em
but now we can't;     I wish you were here
D/F#       G        D/F#
I wish you were here
                 Em

  and I wish this were a riverbank
