Daves song
Capo on the 2nd Fret

Intro: 
[D] [G]  [A]  [D]

[D]I was born and raised on the [G]river
It's the [A]only life that I [D]know
People 'round here have put a [G]name on me
And I [A]hear it wherever I [D]go


[D]They call me [D]river boy, [G]river boy
[A]A good for nothin’[D] river boy
[D]This old world don't hold a [G]whole lot of joy
When you're [A]nothin' but a [D]river boy


[D]I do a lot of fishin' on the [G]river
To [A]make my livin' you [D]see
[D]When I take my catch to the [G]market place
The [A]people call out to [D]me


[D]And they say, [D]river boy, hey [G]river boy
[A]You got any fish today there,[D] river boy
[D]I sell my ware, but [G]nobody cares
About the [A]feelings of the r[D]iver boy

Key Change or not?

There's a [E]pretty girl works at the [A]market place
I [B7]see her there every[E]day
But [E]when I try to [A]talk to her
I can [B7]hear her papa [E]say

[E]Come away from that [E]River boy,[A] he's a river boy
[B7]Nothin' but a riff-raff [E]river boy
[E]No girl of mine is gonna [A]waste her time
On a [B7]good for nothin' river [E]boy


[E]So I head my boat back up the r[A]iver
Ba[B7]ck to my old fishin' p[E]lace
I’[E]m afraid this ol' river's [A]gonna overflow
From t[B7]he tears runnin’ down my [E]face


[E]I’m just a river boy, river boy [A]river boy
[B7]A good for nothin’ river [E]boy
[E]This old world don't hold a [A]whole lot of joy
For a [B7]good for nothin' river [E]boy

Outro
[E]This old world don't hold a [A]whole lot of joy
For a [B7]good for nothin' river [E]boy
