[Intro]
A

[Verse 1]
A Bm
On this side of the river
D A
The forest is clear, trees disappear
Bm
The bank is half green grass and muddy
D A
If you wanna get your feet wet, you gotta watch your step
Bm
The current is swift and ever-changing
D A
Swimming can be cold so bring a long cane pole
Bm
Even the catfish say, the chicken liver
D E A
Is a better bite on this side of the river

[Chorus]
Bm D A E
But I've never seen this overflowing stream from the other side
Bm
Over there it could be nice
D
I thought about it twice
A
The first time was on a stormy Monday
Bm
By Tuesday, the blues flooded through my mind
E
I knew where I'd reside

[Verse 2]
A Bm
On this side of the river
D A
It's warm and cozy, neighbors ain't nosy

It's where I grew up
Bm
And the rest of my family
D A
I can't help it if I know no better than this

Besides I like it here
Bm
So I guess God damn me
D E
Where the risk is low, the water is high
A
On this side of the river

[Chorus]
Bm D A E
But I've never seen this overflowing stream from the other side
Bm
Over there it could be nice
