The Secret Sisters "Tennessee River Runs Low" chords
Start Jamming...
If I were born [E] to be [Bm] a river, if a river [Em] is all [Bm] I'd be,
[Em]
I'd tell [F#] the giver [Bm] of all [E] of the rivers to [B] make me [F#] the
[Bm] Tennessee.
How many drops of rain roll off [Em] of how many window panes?
Down to a valley low where a [F#] river like me begins to grow.
[Bm] I sing a mournful song as [Em] I rush and ramble along.
[F#] Oh de oh de oh de oh de oh de oh [Bm] de oh.
I bury secrets deep, I keep [Em] them down where the catfish creep.
Where the rolling tide can't [F#] reach the things that I hide.
[Bm] I offal tune in [Em] the Alabama June.
[F#] Oh de oh de oh de oh de [Bm] oh de oh de oh.
And I [F#] sing oh de de de de oh do do do do.
[F#]
Oh oh oh oh oh [F#m] even the [F#] Tennessee River [Bm] runs low.
[Em] When the sky is bright and clear, not a [Bm] cloud above you,
[Em]
you can float in knowing dear that I was [F#] made to love you.
[Em] But when the storm is raging, all the [Bm] light is fading,
[Em] the river sings along with me, [F#] reaching for that minor key.
[Bm] Color me blue and gray, [Em] river carry me fast away.
Flood all the rocks and rills, [F#] humble the mighty [Bm] hill.
I am the Tennessee, see [Em] you down at the stormy sea.
[F#] Oh de oh de oh de oh de oh [Bm] de oh de oh.
And I [F#] sing oh de de de de [Bm] oh do do do [F#] do.
Oh oh oh oh oh [D] even the [F#] Tennessee River [Bm] runs low.
Even the Tennessee River [Bm] runs low.
[F#] Even the Tennessee River runs low.
[Bm] [D]
[N] Thank you.
