Tom Russell - American Rivers


CAPO: 2nd Fret



[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
F C
Ain’t no more cane on the Brazos
F G C
Yeah, yeah, yeah
F C
It’s all been ground down to molasses
F G C
Yeah, yeah, yeah


[Verse 2]

I saw a red iron sunset

From a rust iron bridge
F
In the Indian country
C
Of the mockingbird kid


[Verse 3]

I saw the moon in a boxcar

Being carried as freight
F
Through sixty-two winters
C
Through forty-eight states


[Verse 4]

In an old Chinese graveyard

I slept in the weeds
F
When a song and a story
C
Were all a kid needs


[Verse 5]

Hear the rhymes and the rattles

Of those runaway trains
F
And the songs of the cowboy
C
And the sound of the rain


[Chorus]

And it’s, "Mom, I miss you"

I woke up and screamed
F
American rivers
C
Roll deep through my dreams
F C
It's Colorado, yeah, Allegheny
F C
Shenandoah, Susquehanny
Am G
And the Wabash and the Hudson, the brave Rio Grande
F C
I was a kid there, asleep in the sandy old water
F C F C
Yeah, old water, yeah


[Interlude]
C Bb C Bb C


[Verse 6]

We named ‘em for Indians

Our guilt to forsake
F
The Delaware the Blackfoot
C
The Flathead the Snake


[Verse 7]

Now they roll past casinos

And old hamburger stands
F
They’re all waving farewell
C
To the kid on the land


[Verse 8]

With their jigsawed old arteries

So clogged and defiled
F
No open heart miracle
C
Is gonna turn ’em back wild


[Verse 9]

Past towns gone to bankers

Past fields gone to seed
F
All cut up and carved out
C
So divided by greed


[Verse 10]

And old grandfather catfish

With his whiskers so long
F
And his life in a struggle
C
'Cause the oxygen’s gone


[Chorus]

"Oh, mom, I miss you", I woke up and screamed
F
These American rivers
C
They poison my dreams
F C
It's Colorado, yeah, Allegheny
F C
Shenandoah, Susquehanny
Am G
And the Wabash and the Hudson, the brave Rio Grande
F C
I was a kid there, I was asleep in the sandy old water
F C F
Yeah, old water, yeah


[Outro]
C Bb C Bb C
