[Verse]
C
4 a. m. comes awful early, and I was dead on my feet
G
But if you gonna catch a biggest fish
D
You gotta lose a little sleep
C
Well, I pack my gear and a couple beers
Em
I headed for my favorite spot
G F#dim
Well, I curse my luck when I saw his truck right where I pulled off
Em D C
Was hoping to have the river to myself that day

[Chorus]
G C
Cause the river don't talk, the river don't care
G
Where you've been, what you've done
D
Why it is you're standin' there
Em C
It just flows on by whisperin' to your soul
G D C G G Bm D C G Bm D
It's gonna be al- right, the river just knows |
C
The way the sun bounced off the water

I could hardly make him out
G
But I could see he had a fish on
D
A big ole rainbow trout
C
The fight went on forever

And as he headed down my way, I saw his
G F#dim
military haircut and the new scars on his face
Em D C
Right then I knew what brought him to this place

[Chorus]
G C
You know the river don't talk, the river don't care
G
Where you've been, what you've done
D
Don't know why it is you're standin' there
Em C
It just flows on by whisperin' to your soul
G D C G
It's gonna be al- right, the river just knows
F
He held that fish down in the water
Em
And he coaxed it back to life
G
He said I'll help you get your wind back
