Oh, there's a little boy,
a [E] little boy on the banks of the Shenandoah,
[D] he's signing to the water with his poor reindeer. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
He _ _ [E] can always hear a breeding from around the water,
that's all. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] Fire and [D] cannon water and the land,
a rich son of man, a good old man's a [A] kid.
But I'm not [D] a big fan of much,
I [G] can't live in said [A] man's land.
[D] But [G] can he be?
[D] But [G] can he be?
[D] Can he be Captain Ryman?

_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ Everyone's a kid,
but you can't be Captain Ryman.
_ Fire and water [A] and the land,
a rich son [D] of man's land.
_ Why is it so? _
_ [B] The boy [D] ran down the mountain [G] hill,
and there's a [Bm] little boy,
a little boy on the banks of the [A] Shenandoah,
he's resting [D] there,
he's eating his grass,
and all [A] the land's in pain.
[D] But [G] can he be?
[D] But [G] can he [D] be?
Can he be Captain Ryman?
But [G] can he [D] be?
[G] But can he [D] be?
Can he be Captain Ryman?

_ In the valley and high in the swamps,
on the banks of the river,
the white-tailed junk should die.
Then the digits flying in the feet,
in the belly of the wagon,
for a fool to hate.
Now the poor little salt in the can,
in the blood in the fin,
is gonna be a rag's end.
_ _ _ There is no more critique,
so there [A] is exactly no doubt,
that the Carolina [G] boy,
is gonna be the captain [E] of the city line.
The boy from the river,
is [Bm] gonna be the leader,
when they go [B] home to Virginia.
When they go [A] home to Virginia.
_ _ [D]
But [G] can he be?
_ [D] But can he be?
Can he be Captain Ryman?
But [G] can he be?
But can he be?
Captain Ryman. _ _
