Tish Hinojosa By The Rio Grande written by Tish Hinojosa
A augmentedA
Every river searches for the sea
E MajorE
Every life runs it's own destiny
D MajorD F# minorF#m E MajorE F# minorF#m
Canyons white and wild streches calm and mild
E MajorE A augmentedA
Cutting through the stones of history
A augmentedA
Rio Grande runs south to Mexico
E MajorE
From the highway I have touched its shores
D MajorD F# minorF#m E MajorE F# minorF#m
Reynosa to Sante Fe and back the other way
E MajorE A augmentedA
I've had my life planned by the Rio Grande
D MajorD F# minorF#m
An unbroken chain snow and tears and rain
E MajorE A augmentedA
Cutting thru my soul and to my veins
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Then the waters rise paint the Rocky Mountain skies
E MajorE
One more circle around the world again
A augmentedA
One more year rolls down the Rio Grande
A augmentedA
Our forefathers crossed the muddy line
A augmentedA E MajorE
Pilgrims passing leaving tracks in time
D MajorD F# minorF#m E MajorE F# minorF#m
One more takes a stand by the water by the land
E MajorE A augmentedA
Shifting like the sand by the Rio Grande
D MajorD F# minorF#m
An unbroken chain snow and tears and rain
E MajorE A augmentedA
Cutting thru my soul and to my veins
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Then the waters rise paint the Rocky Mountain skies
E MajorE
One more circle around the world again
A augmentedA
One more year rolls down the Rio Grande
E MajorE
One more circle around the world again
A augmentedA
One more year rolls down the Rio Grande
