Daughter Of The Everglades Chords by Rory Gallagher

[Dm] Where you rest by the river, [G] _ _
down in the [Am] low, low land _ _ _
_ [Dm] Where the air is darkness and it's [G] dirt
The night is [Am] no safe place to stand _ _
_ _ [Dm] Hidden reason lies at [G] the peak, _ voices I can't [Am] understand _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] Flamingos flying endlessly [G] _
into [Am] the silent sky _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ Daughter of the [Em] Everglades, _ you never might [Am] be a slave _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] Daughter of the [Em]
Everglades, if you wanted [Am] to be here _
_ _ _ _ [C] Shot down by the river, [Em] _ _ I never [Am] saw your face
_ _ _ _ [Dm] Well you look like your mama, [G] _ _ before you [Am] walked the swamp _
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] Learned to make that snake [G]-tail stew
From your daddy's [Am] crazy talking fisherman
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] In this place there is no [G] law, _ the river makes all [Am] the rules
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] But dear I found [G] out _ when I came [Am] to look for you
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ Daughter of the [Em] Everglades, why did you [Am] bring me here?
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
Daughter of the [Em] Everglades, _ my [Am] love has turned to fear
_ _ _ _ [C] Shot down by the river, [Em] _ _ _ let me [Am]
feel your name

_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] [Dm] Daughter of the Everglades, I'm your father
Well you left in the city, [G] _ but I knew [Am] after a year
_ _ _ _ [Dm] That you'd cry in the city, [G] _ I should not [Am] have brought you here
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] So far from the bayou, [G] _ _ down in [Am] the low, low land
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm]
Don't know why you left me, [G] but now I think I [Am]
understand
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] Take me back to the river, [G] _ _ down in the [Am]
smokey ground
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm]
Perhaps next call you don't [G] cheat, by the river you [Am] live for now
_ _ _ _ [Dm] For the swell of the river, [G] _ the riverboat sails [Am] by so proud
I _ _ _ [Dm]
should have gone there with you, [G] _ now they're telling [Am] me you left town
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _
Daughter of the [Em] Everglades, _ _ [Am] let me feel your name
_ _ _ _ [C] _
Daughter of the [Em] Everglades, _ I know [Am] I'll find you here
_ _ _ _ [C]
Shot down by the [Em] river, _ _ I [Am] can't sleep but sing
_ _ [Em] _ _ _
[C] Daughter of the Everglades, [Em] _ _ I [Am] want to feel your name
_ _ _ _ [C] _
Daughter of the [Em] Everglades, _ I [Am] must find you here
_ _ _ _ [C]
Shot down by the river, [Em] _ _ I can't [Am] sleep but sing
