RIVER BY YONDER MOUNTAIN STRING BAND

^FThe river rolls and^Am the river winds And it ^Fseems to do ^Fsomething for my ^Gpeace of mind ^FThough I didn't know it, I came here ^Amlooking to find A place to ^Fforget about my ^Gtroubles for awhile

I saw a ^Gmother with her ^Flittle baby when I was ^Fwalking here There's ^Gsomething 'bout a little ^Fbaby that makes me ^Flaugh ^GThey don't seem to ^Fhave a care And I ^Fwonder if I'm ever gonna ^Amfeel that way ^Gagain Until then, I'll find some ^Ftime to ^Gspend down by the ^Friver

Then this repeats for the other verses I spend a lot of time looking forward Looking back and looking down at my feet upon the ground I fell backwards and when I opened my eyes I found myself staring straight up in the sky And it seemed like there was something there to learn When I realized I had nowhere else to be And the only sound that mattered was the wind that blowed so gentle through the trees Such a harmony down by the river Well I heard music, it was soft and clear And I sang out for the first time, I didn't care who would hear Because I found my answers in the wind and waves And the magic in the little things that happen every day And I played that tune on my old mandolin And I didn't hurt at all for company tabbeb by matt
