[F] Johnny was a country boy, and they'd sit in after me.
And every Saturday night he'd play the guitar with the boys at the local bay.
He was golden thin, he had white hair, sweet little twirls.
He had your backbone, shiver when you walked by the river.
He'd listen to his talks from here, listen to his songs from there.
[Bb] The river runs [F] so sweetly, the river runs through the sea.
You're a shoulder soul to the devil down [Cm] below, the woman [Fm] I set in free.

To the river, to the river, to the deep.
And my soul, if you give me your guitar, make a laugh, make a bond, ween.
Make a bond, ween.
I could have never ever spoke to Johnny, you'd be the best in all the land.
I'd play you where there's fire from hell, but you sure be a bad man.
The [Bb]
river runs so [F] sweetly, the river runs through the sea.

You'd be good when you left the deep, close to the sea.
You'd play and sing, you'd hear the ring, so the band would come to me.

[F] You came to a beat of a trombone, I heard a band of guitar men.
When the boys got hoarse, his fingers [Fm] were bloody, he was playing ever to command.
