WATCHING THE RIVER FLOW- Bob Dylan

TUNING: E B E G# B E

A E A TURNAROUND 1

A D

What's the matter with me? I don't have much to say

A B

Daylight's sneaking' through the window

E

And I'm still in this all night cafe

A

Walking to and fro beneath the moon

D

Out to where the trucks are rolling slow

A E A TURNAROUND 2

Sit out on this bank of sand and watch the river flow

Wish I was back in the city instead of this ol' bank of sand

With the sun beatin' down over the chimney tops

And the one I love so close at hand

If I had wings and I could fly, I know where I would go

But right now I just sit here so contentedly

And watch the river flow TURNAROUND 3

BRIDGE #1:

E

People disagreein' on just about everything, yep

A

Makes you stop and wonder why

F#m B

Why only yesterday I saw someone on the street

E

Who just couldn't help but cry

CHORUS:

A

Wo, but this old river keeps on rollin' though

D

No matter what gets in the way and which was the wind does blow

A E

And as long as it does I just sit here

A TURNAROUND 1 (1ST TIME, 2ND TIME TO OUTRO)

And watch the river flow

SOLO (OVER VERSE CHORDS, END WITH TURNAROUND 3)

BRIDGE #2:

People disagreein' everywhere you look

Makes you want to stop and read a book

Why only yesterday I saw somebody on the street

That was a-really shook ...CHORUS

OUTRO:

D A D A D

Watch the river flow, watching the river flow

A D

Watching the river flow

A E

Well, I just sit out on this bank of sand

A TURNAROUND 1, BUT END ON A7

And watch the river flow
