Intro:

 G+G



       E minorEm
River winding through this mill town
  C majorC          G+G
My hometown is dark by Four
       E minorEm                 C majorC
Winter coming, the mills have long shut down and
        D MajorD
No one's working anymore

   E minorEm
And I drove by McDonalds
   C majorC
And a long line just followed
    G+G          D MajorD   G+G
From a posting today for a job
       E minorEm
River winding through the darkness
 C majorC         G+G
Always to rise and fall


       E minorEm
River winding, you wouldn't believe
     C majorC           G+G
How many souls were glued right here
       E minorEm            C majorC
Winter coming, everyone's got shoes but
          D MajorD
No one knows how to get through the year


    E minorEm
When I drove by my high school
    C majorC            G+G
And the students are so few now
          D MajorD    G+G
So many families have left
       E minorEm
River winding through the darkness
  C majorC             E minorEm
Sometimes cursed and sometimes blessed

Instrumental: C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G E minorEm C majorC G+G


       E minorEm             C majorC
River winding, sparkling in the moonlight
          G+G
Cleaner than it's been
                E minorEm          C majorC
But the main street store fronts are mostly empty now
           D MajorD
Hand written signs, 'Space For Rent'


   E minorEm
And I drove by the factories
    C majorC
And the windows were broken
     G+G            D MajorD  G+G
Where the lights used to be always on
       E minorEm
River winding through the darkness
 C majorC       E minorEm   D MajorD   G+G
Always to move along, along
