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.
