I walked down that boulder road,

C G F F Am

Through a child's eye saw places where I used to go.

G Am Am G G Am Am

Where I crawled barefoot with a fishing pole

C G F F G

to the rock that overlooked that steelhead hole

F F G G D Am G G Am Am

but it's true-- silver river turning blue.

G G Am Am G Am Am G G Am Am

It was a small town in a smaller world.

C G F F Am

Just a black dot on an old map with its edges curled.

G Am Am G G Am Am

Where they built their industries on the edge of town--

C G F F G

Leaching chemicals from underground

F F G G D Am

now it's true-- that silver river turning blue.

G F C G F F G

Just got a late reaction. Face reality and stare it down.

Bb F C D E

Sometimes it's harder hanging on. Much easier to look around.

But I need that job.

G G Am Am

G G Am Am G Am Am G G

Am Am

Well, this place no city: we're just small players here.

C G F F Am

Like a million other heroes drinking poor man's beer.

G Am Am G G Am Am

We know what's right. We're just living it wrong.

C G F F G

But there's no easy answer in the green man's song.

F F G G D Am

What do you do? When your river's turning Blue.
