[Intro]
G F G G

[Verse 1]
G F
Big brown tin can lying in the black sand
C
We used to lie there and watch the day
D D7
Now the leaves have all turned to grey

[Chorus]
G D
Down by the river where the river don't flow
C G
We can't go there no more
G D
Down by the river where the river don't flow
C G
The birds don't sing, ain't it a sad thing

[Verse 2]
G F
Little child upon my knee holds a picture of a tree
C
Tears in his eyes say where'd they all go
D D7
The tears in mine say I really don't know

[Chorus]
G D
Down by the river where the river don't flow
C G
We can't go there no more
G D
Down by the river where the river don't flow
C G
The birds don't sing, ain't it a sad thing

[Bridge]
C G
Listen to the wind blowing over the land
D G
Listen to the reasons that you don't understand
A D
Reach out and take my hand and we'll run, run, run, run
