CAPO 2

G+G             D MajorD      G+G         C majorC
The railroads and the riverboats that bred the mighty man
    G+G         D MajorD        C majorC           D MajorD
That we read about and we dream about, the men who built this land
    G+G         D MajorD       G+G            D MajorD
And the farmers and the lumbermen and the men who worked the mills
    G+G         D MajorD     C majorC          D MajorD
And the poor hard working miners who died inside the hills

           G+G              C majorC
While the rivers that flow are the blood of our land
             D MajorD                G+G
And the trucks they keep rumbling on the great concrete band
            G+G               C majorC
And the railroads keep pushing to be all they once were
       D MajorD                G+G
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her


    G+G             D MajorD   G+G          C majorC
And the immigrants by the boat load in a dozen different tones
     G+G         D MajorD       C majorC         G+G
Sang of freedom in the new land, climbed the ladder rung by rung
    G+G        D MajorD        G+G         C majorC
Some to Boston, some to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and St. Paul
      G+G        D MajorD     C majorC           G+G
And the old ways led to new days, they were welcome one and all


           G+G              C majorC
While the rivers that flow are the blood of our land
             D MajorD                G+G
And the trucks they keep rumbling on the great concrete band
            G+G               C majorC
And the railroads keep pushing to be all they once were
       D MajorD                G+G
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her


      G+G        D MajorD         G+G          C majorC
With the railroads and the riverboats and the bread lines far behind
     G+G       D MajorD      C majorC          G+G
And the days we sang together, long gone but still in mind
     G+G      D MajorD         G+G          C majorC
And the men who came before us, men who brought us to today
     G+G      D MajorD        C majorC         G+G
And the story still unravels from the dreams of yesterday


           G+G              C majorC
While the rivers that flow are the blood of our land
             D MajorD                G+G
And the trucks they keep rumbling on the great concrete band
            G+G               C majorC
And the railroads keep pushing to be all they once were
       D MajorD                G+G
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her
       D MajorD                G+G
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her
