1901, there beneath the August sun, a [A] derrick survey [E]
undertaken [B] on the fly.
[E] Colorado [C#m] would request, [E] divert the river [C#m] water west, [E] for the [B] Yonkabagra valley was [E] too dry.
There'd been one attempt before, and they needed to know more, [A] than what Brian saw from base camps [B] on the rim.
[C#m] When the challenge whet their thirst, [E] two men planned to be the first, [A] to feed the canyon [E] floor out cut from deep within.
[C#m]
[A] There's [E] only one way [B] the water [C#m] flows, [A] [E] through a passage [B] no one knows.
Headed [E] down the canyon black, they could never turn their back, [A] staring down the [B] barrel of the [E] Gunnison.

[B] [E]
The journey started as they planned, with support from a third man, who hiked the old trail high above the [B] river's hood.
[E] Till they came [C#m] upon an arrow, [E] out the jaws of the [C#m] false sorrow, with [A] one way out they [B] took the only [E] way they could.
Diving deep into the churn, maybe never to [A] return, the bear could only [E] hope to breathe the [B] air again.
The [E] angry river turned and tossed, and the two might [C#m] have been lost, [A] deep below the [B] surface of the [E] Gunnison.
[A] There's [E] only one way the [B] water [E] flows, [A] [E] through a passage [B] no one knows.
