This is the right tab, my first tab!!!
It sounds good, this is a beautiful forgotten song of the marvellous Jim Croce,
from the lost LP "Facets".
With the voice of the wife Ingrid Croce.
It is perfect for a duet.

CAPO 2
FThe railroads and the riveGrboats that Fbred the mighty maFn
That we Fread about and we Gdream about, theF men who built this laGnd
And the Ffarmers and the luGmbermen and theF men who worked the millFs
And the Fpoor hard working Gminers whoF died inside the hillGs
While the rivers that Fflow are the blood of our lanFd
And the trucks they keep rGumbling on the great concrete baFnd
And the railroads keep Fpushing to be all they once werFe
And nature is Gcalling, no one's listening to heFr
And the Fimmigrants by the boat loaGd in a Fdozen different toneFs
Sang of fFreedom in the new lGand, climbed thFe ladder rung by ruGng
Some to FBoston, some to GPittsburgh, PhilaFdelphia and St. PaFul
And the old Fways led to new Gdays, they Fwere welcome one and aGll
While the rivers that Fflow are the blood of our lanFd
And the trucks they keep rGumbling on the great concrete baFnd
And the railroads keep Fpushing to be all they once werFe
And nature is Gcalling, no one's listening to heFr
With the raFilroads and the rGiverboats and the Fbread lines far behiFnd
And the dFays we sang toGgether, long Fgone but still in miGnd
And the mFen who came bGefore us, men who Fbrought us to today F
And the sFtory still uGnravels from theF dreams of yesterdaGy
While the rivers that Fflow are the blood of our lanFd
And the trucks they keep rGumbling on the great concrete baFnd
And the railroads keep Fpushing to be all they once werFe
And nature is Gcalling, no one's listening to heFr
And nature is Gcalling, no one's listening to heFr
