_ Betty [Cm] came by on her way
_ _ [Bb] _ _ Said she had a word to say
[Ab] _ _ _ About things today
_ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ Said she hadn't heard the _ news
[Bb] _ _ _ _
Hadn't had the time to choose
[Ab] _ _ _
_ A way to lose _ _
[C] _ _ What she believes _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ Gonna see the river man
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Bbm] _ Gonna tell him all I [Ab] _
can
_ _ _ About the plans, _ _ _ [C] _ _ the line of time
_ If _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ he tells me all he _ [Eb] _ _
_ [Bbm] knows
_ About the way his river _ _ [Ab] _ flows _
And all night shows

_ _ _ [Cm] _ Betty said she prayed today
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _
For the sky to blow _ _ [Ab] _ _
away
Or maybe stay _ _
_ _ [C] She wasn't sure
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
When she thought of summer rain
_ [Bb] _ _
_ _ Calling [Bbm] for her mind again
[Ab] She _ _ lost the _ pain
_ _ [C] _ _ Stayed for more
_ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ Gonna see the river man _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ Gonna tell him all I [Ab] can
_ _ _ [Ab] About the band
_ _ _ [G] _ _
Feeling free _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ If he tells me all he _ knows
[Bb] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
About the way his river _ [Ab] flows _
_ I don't _ suppose _ _
_ _ It's meant for me _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ Oh, _ are they come and go _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, are [C] they come and go _
