Asus2 G Em
[Verse 1]
Em
My mother came to Hazard when I was just seven
Em D
Even then the folks in town said with prejudiced eyes
Asus2
That boy's not right
Em
Three years ago when I came to know Mary
Em D
First time that someone looked beyond the rumours and the lies
A
And saw the man inside
[Chorus]
C G
We used to walk down by the river
C Em
She loved to watch the sun go down
C G Em
We used to walk along the ri ... ver
D C Em
And dream our way out of this town
[Interlude]
Em D G
Asus2 G Em

Em
No one understood what I felt for Mary
Em D
No one cared until the night she went out walking all alone
Asus2
And never came home
Em
Man with a badge came knocking next morning
Em D
Here was I surrounded by a thousand fingers suddenly
A
Pointed right at me
[Chorus]
C G
I swear I left her by the river
C Em
I swear I left her safe and sound
C G Em
I need to make it to the ri ... ver
D C Em
And leave this old Nebraska town
[Bridge]
D C
I think about my life gone by
Em D
How it's done me wrong
D C
There's no escape for me this time
Bm C G D Em
All of my rescues are gone, long gone
[Interlude]
Em D Asus2
Em D A
[Chorus]

I need to make it to the ri ... ver

And leave this old Nebraska town
Em D
