Turnpike Troubadoursගේ On The Red River ගීතයට ගිටාර් කෝඩ්ස්

[Verse 1]
---------------------
D              D                        Bm
 And there's a midJuly white tail in velvet
D                        Em G
Red as your old Chevrolet
    D        A             G                D
And I was sixteen when you wrecked it and we
     Em                       Bm A
Were lucky we both walked away
              D                            Bm
And you could day work and scrape out a living
        D                       Em  G
The work for which you had been born
         D                 A       G     D
You were quick with a laugh and forgiving
    Em                            Bm A
And tied hard and fast to the horn
       D                            Bm
We had Kelpies and good quarter horses
       D                            Em  G
We had wheat pasture yearlings tied down
           D            A          G      D
We learned pain was the price of admission
           Em
And you're never done paying it down

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Bm A       Bm        A             G     D
    Back on  the Red River not hard to remember
          Bm          A         G
When your daddy would never get old
      D             A     D         G
When I saw the world from upon your shoulders
    Bm             A
I remember the view
         G            D
When you live like we do
         Bm             A             Em           Bm
And death  doesn't leave with the best  part of you

[Verse 2]
---------------------
A   D                               Bm
 On days off we'd help out our neighbors
         D                           Em  G
And we'd smile and we'd sweat it for free
            D           A            G  D
You'd earned every drink with your labor
        Em                           Bm   A
And I'd sleep on your front seat til three
              D                     Bm
And you'd call it a cure for a snake  bite
       D                  Em    G
A reach for a fifth of old  crow
     D        A                   G     D
Some medicine should get your head right
         Em
When the symptoms were starting to show

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Bm A       Bm        A             G     D
    Back on  the Red River not hard to remember
          Bm          A         G
When your daddy would never get old
      D             A     D         G
When I saw the world from upon your shoulders
    Bm             A
I remember the view
         G            D
When you live like we do
         Bm              A             Em           Bm A
And death  couldn't leave with the best  part of you

[Verse 3]
---------------------
A              D                              Bm
 And there are pickups lined up down the driveway
       D                        Em    G
Have I really been gone for two years?
    D        A          G       D
I'd be on my third on a good day
    Em
I'd find my last bottle of beer
Bm A        D                           Bm
    I guess Saturday started without you
      D                     Em G
I knew before I got the call
        D        A               G  D
And the red July bugs were in velvet
     Em                      Bm
I'll tell you about 'em this fall

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
A       Bm        A             G     D
 Back on  the Red River not hard to remember
          Bm          A         G
When your daddy would never get old
      D             A     D         G
When I saw the world from upon your shoulders
    Bm             A
I remember the view
         G            D
When you live like we do
         Bm             A             Em
And death  doesn't leave with the best  part of you
      Bm               A       D        G
Gotta look at the world from up on your shoulders

[Outro]
---------------------
    Bm             A         G             D
I remember the view when you lived like we do
Bm                 A             Em           Bm
Death doesn't leave with the best  part of you
