_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ [Cm] Take me to _ Riverdown, [Bb] where you can't tell night [Cm] from day.
And _ _ [Eb] everything's forgiven, _ [Bb] I did not wash [Cm] it away.
But dreaming comes [Eb] too easy, [Bb] but living's twice [Cm] as hard.
_ And _ everything's [Eb] buried _ [Bb] beneath the water and [Cm] the stars.
_ [Eb] _ _ [Gm] _ [Cm] Yeah, I am [Eb] the coarse skin, _ [Bb] _ wayward on the stone.
_ I've been rolling [Eb]
empty sevens since [Bb] the day that [Gm] I was born.
Got no rings upon my [Eb]
fingers, no [Bb] ink beneath [Cm] my skin.
_ I'll be as clean, [Eb] good night, [Bb] as I was coming in.
_ _ _ [Cm] I'm [Ab] gonna wash [Eb] my sins [Bb] in the _ [Cm] Angelina River.
_ [Ab] And all that she can [Eb] take from me [G] is all that I can put.
[Ab] And time will bring you [Eb]
down, and [Bb] time will make [Cm] you whole.
_ [Ab] I turned my back [Eb] some time ago, [Bb] and I'm going home.

_ _ _ _ Well, I wandered through [Eb] the pine trees like [Bb] an outlaw in the [Cm] rain.
I rambled [Bb] through big thicket wood, a pistol and my [Cm] name.
Running away, you restless [Eb] angels, [Bb] don't waste your love [Cm] on me.
Just lay me down in [Eb]
Rivertown, [Bb] and home is where [Cm] I'll be.
_ _ [Ab] I'm gonna _ wash [Eb] my sins in [Bb] the _ Angelina [Cm] River.
_ [Ab] And all that she can [Eb] take from [G] me is all that I can give her.
[Ab] And time will bring you [Eb] down, _ [Bb] and time will make [Cm] you whole.
I [Ab] turned my back some [Eb] time ago, [Bb] and I'm [Gm] going [Cm] _ home.
