Chords for Troy Cassar-Daley - River Boy (Official Video) feat. Shane Howard

[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I was born and raised [A] on the river.
_ It's [B] the only life [E] that I know.
_ _ People around here have [A] put a name on me.
And I [B] hear it wherever [E] I go.
They call me River Boy, [A] _ River Boy.
_ [B] _
A good for [E] nothing River Boy.
This whole world don't [A] hold a whole lot of joy [B] when you're nothing but a River [E] Boy.
I _ _ _ _ do a lot of fishing [A] on the river.
_ [B] To make my living, [E] you see. _
_ When I take my catch [A] to the marketplace, [B] the people call out [E] to me.
And they say, River Boy, [A] hey River Boy, _ [B] got any fish today [E] there, River Boy?
I sell my wares, [A] but nobody cares [B] about the feelings of a River [E] Boy.
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] There's a pretty girl works [B] at the marketplace.
[C#] I see her there every [F#] day.
_ But when I try [B] to talk to her, [C#] I can hear her papa [F#] say, come away from there, River Boy.
[B] He's a River Boy, [C#] _
nothing but a [F#] riffraff River Boy.
No girl of [B] mine's gonna waste her time.
[C#] Only good for nothing River [F#] Boy. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ [B] _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ So I head my boat back [B] up the river, _ [C#] back to my old fishing [F#] place.
I'm afraid this old river's [B] gonna overflow from [C#] the tears running down [F#] my face.
I'm nothing but a River Boy, [B] _
River [C#] Boy.
A good for [F#] nothing River Boy.
This whole world don't [C#] hold a whole lot of joy when you're nothing but a River [F#] Boy. _
