River Girl Teclado

	   





D 
Wide-open western sky 
         Dmaj7    D6       Dmaj7  G 
Rust-red sunset startin' to fade on an August night 

The heat's still risin' off the asphalt when we 
D 
Turn down a county road 
              Dmaj7         D6     Dmaj7     G 
Rattle over a cattle guard past a row of old fence posts 

To a one lane bridge where the path begins 
A                G 
When we feel the coolness in the air 
A                  G (hold) 
Then we know we're almost there and 


D            G 
You put your hand in mine 
Bm                C        G 
Tiny fingers that fit just fine and we 
D                   G 
Walk down where the river gets wide 
Bm          A         G 
And no one ever comes around 
D                     G 
Hidin' out ‘neath the Concho moon 
Bm            C          G 
No agenda and nothin' to prove in our 
D  G      A 
Own little world 
G 
Just me and my river girl 


D 
The hours go slippin' by like 
     Dmaj7      D6      Dmaj7     G 
Dark water over flat rocks in the moonlight 

You kick your flip-flops off, trail your toes in the water and you 
D 
Tell me all of your dreams 
           Dmaj7  D6         Dmaj7   G 
Small town girl takin' on the world in cut-off jeans 

And when you lean back, lay your head on my lap I can 
A       G 
See the starlight in your eyes 
A                  G (hold) 
And for me there's no dream like when 



D            G 
You put your hand in mine 
Bm                   C        G 
Pretty fingers that fit just fine and we 
D                   G 
Walk down where the river gets wide 
Bm          A         G 
And no one ever comes around 
D                     G 
Hidin' out ‘neath the Concho moon 
Bm            C          G 
No agenda and nothin' to prove in our 
D  G      A 
Own little world 
G 
Just me and my river girl 


Bm                    G 
One day I know you'll fly from this sleepy town 
Bm                  G (hold) 
But for this moment here and now 

(single strums) 
D            G 
You put your hand in mine 
Bm                C       G 
Tiny fingers that feel so fine and we 
D                    G 
Walk along where the river gets wide 
Bm  A         G (start strumming again & crescendo here) 
Two people in love 
D                          G 
There's no feeling' in the world like this 
Bm          C      G 
Frozen in a tiptoe kiss in our 
D  G      A 
Own little world 
G 
Just me and my river girl 


Just me and my river girl
