{title: Last Of The Riverboats}
{subtitle:Andy Durant }
Intro
C7 G/B C G C G
C7 G/B
There a light across the river and it's
Am G
making me dream
Em
It's the last of the riverboats and it's
D C
getting up steam
C7 G/B Am G
I can see it through the willows, I can hear it round the bend
Em A
The birds fly up and they're saying
D C
It won't be back again
D G D G
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
C G/B Am G/B C
And someone throws me a line
D G D G
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
C G/B Am G/B C C#m
And the water shows me a sign
D C G
It's the last of the riverboats going home
C G/B
I dreamed I took a journey
Am G Em
From Echuca to the lake
A
Drinkin on the promenade deck
D C
Till I couldn't keep awake
C G/B Am G
I woke up with a vision from a different time
Em D C
When the road was a river and the riverboat was mine
D G D G
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
C G/B Am G/B C
And someone throws me a line
D G D G
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
C G/B Am G/B C C#m
And the water shows me a sign
D C G
It's the last of the riverboats going home
Solo
C G C G C G Am C D G
C G/B C G
Meanwhile we're living, lives we all know
E D
Paying our tax and breaking our backs
C
With nothing left to show
C G/B D G
Thinking of a future, of a day that'll come for sure
Em A D
We'll take the riverboat and we'll fire it up once more
D G D G
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
C G/B Am D C
And someone throws me a line
D G D G
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
C G/B Am G/B C C#m
And the water shows me a sign
D G
It's the last of the riverboats going home
C G D
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
goes
C G/B Am D C
And someone throws me a line
D G D G
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
C G/B Am G/B C C#m
And the water shows me a sign
D C G
It's the last of the riverboats going home
This song is one of the most requested in Australia from the great Andrew Durant, member of 70's band
Stars. It took me years to figure it out and it's still not quite right so let's make our changes and
share the love. Slash chords define running bass lines so it's better if you know your way round a bit.
