C majorC FF C majorC x3
A minorAm G+G C majorC x2



Verse 1:
C majorC
She was sittin’ down at the river
FF            C majorC
Watching the clouds roll by
C majorC
Daddy said “One day baby
C majorC       FF           C majorC
You’ll have to spread your wings and fly”
C majorC
Momma and daddy were good folks
     FF      C majorC
But they did not understand
    A minorAm       G+G
So she started chasing rainbows
C majorC
Just to clear her head
    A minorAm
And the ties that bind
G+G
Hurt her more
     C majorC
Than the road that lay ahead

Chorus:

FF        C majorC
And she said I’m leaving
     G+G
And it’s gonna be alright
     FF      C majorC
There’s a Bible on the nightstand
    G+G
And I’m ready for the fight
FF            C majorC
Scars will fade and the memories remain
    G+G         A minorAm
But the pain will make it right

FF C majorC G+G C majorC

Verse 2:

C majorC
Well she met a man one sunny day
     FF         C majorC
He said “There’s no one like you”
C majorC
So she fell in love and swore on her grave that she’d
FF           C majorC
Be there the whole way through
C majorC
All she wanted was only forever
FF          C majorC
And he just couldn’t explain
    A minorAm      G+G
How the way she moved lit up the room
C majorC
But it caused him so much pain
A minorAm           G+G
Eyes in the rearview she bowed her head
C majorC
And wondered if it ain’t all the same

Chorus:

FF        C majorC
And she said I’m leaving
     G+G
And it’s gonna be alright
     FF       C majorC
There’s a Bible on the nightstand
   G+G
And I think I know what’s right
   FF         C majorC
I’ve learned by now to feel no pain
     G+G     A minorAm
And it’s just a part of life

FF C majorC G+G C majorC

Verse 3:

C majorC
Well she was still chasing rainbows
         FF           C majorC
Running from the storms trapped in her mind
C majorC
To her surprise when she reached the end
     FF     C majorC
There was no gold in sight
C majorC
Now she’s all alone and her house is no home
       FF         C majorC
But there’s a spark left in her eye
     A minorAm         G+G
Now she’s sittin’ down at the river
C majorC
Watching the clouds roll by
A minorAm          G+G
Her old wrinkled hand searching
C majorC
For the gun by her side

Chorus:

FF        C majorC
And she said I’m leaving
     G+G
And it’s gonna be alright
     FF      C majorC
There’s a Bible on the nightstand
G+G
And I can see a light
FF          C majorC
Right on top of the world
G+G              A minorAm
With all the stars out that night
FF                  C majorC
That river keeps running through her dreams
   G+G        C majorC
Everything’s gonna be alright

FF C majorC G+G C majorC
