[D]
Little bookshop in the city, working for the man every night and day.
And I never lost a minute of sleep, worrying about the way things might have been.
[A] We'll keep on pointing, [Bm] proud Mary, keep on pointing.
[D] Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
Seen a lot of plates in Memphis, pumping a lot of paint down in New Orleans.
But I never saw the good side of the city, till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen.
[A] We'll keep on pointing, [Bm] proud Mary, keep on pointing.
[D] Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.

you come down to the river, bet you're gonna find some people who live.
You don't have to worry, you have no money.
People on the river are happy to kill.
[A] We'll keep on pointing, [Bm] proud Mary, keep on pointing.
[D] Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river.
