I suggest capo at the 2nd fret, if your voice isn't as deep as Richard's. Intro verse 1 Take me with you when you go, down to the river It's the only place I know, where I can forgive her Take me with you when you go I'm tired of living life on hold Take me with you when you go Down to the river, Down to the river, Down to the river, oh I know verse 2 Take a walk with me a while, it's quiet by the river Oh, I know that she's gone, but I can's forget her Take me with you when you go, it's the only place I know We lost the dreams that we once had How did our lives turn out so bad? Take me with you when you go Chorus Down to the river, down to the river, Down to the river, oh I know Down to the river, I can't forget her I'll stay forever and watch it flow Lead Instrumental Bridge Take me with you when you go, Lady's bridge is where we know Now that our lives turned out so bad, we lost the dreams we once had We can watch the river flow, and maybe make this city slow Take me with you when you go Chorus Down to the river, down to the river, down to the river, oh I know Down to the river I can't forget her I'll stay forever and watch it flow Closing Instrumental Another great Richard Hawley song. He should be more popular!
