Gonna Take A Lot Of River chords by The Oak Ridge Boys

Chords with lyrics

C majorC                        G7G7
I ain't gonna ride no rail or hitchhike down no highway

                    C majorC
I aint' going nowhere feeling the way I do

                        G7G7
Because my baby's long gone and nothings going my way

                         C majorC
I'm gonna let this muddy water just wash away my blues


                       G7G7
Gonna take a lot of river to keep this broken heart afloat

                          C majorC
Gonna take a lot of river running all the live long day

                          G7G7
Gonna take the Mississippi the Monongahela and the Ohio

                       C majorC
Gonna take a lot of river to wash these blues away

                              G7G7
Well I wish I was tug boat pushing and pulling them barges along

                         C majorC
Moving on the water with a heart made of iron and steel


There wouldn't be no woman that could ever

             G7G7
Take my loving and do me wrong

                         C majorC
I could work all day with nothing in the world to feel


                       G7G7
Gonna take a lot of river to keep this broken heart afloat

                          C majorC
Gonna take a lot of river running all the live long day

                          G7G7
Gonna take the Mississippi the Monongahela and the Ohio

                       C majorC
Gonna take a lot of river to wash these blues away

     FF          G# minorG#m
Is she in New Orleans is she a Cajun queen

 A#A#           C majorC
I wonder what she's doing now

    FF          G#G#
But if I know her she's got rings and furs

A#A#          C majorC
Struggling along somehow


                       G7G7
Gonna take a lot of river to keep this broken heart afloat

                          C majorC
Gonna take a lot of river running all the live long day

                          G7G7
Gonna take the Mississippi the Monongahela and the Ohio

                       C majorC
