Johnny Rodriguez - Down On The Rio Grande guitar chord

Down On The Rio Grande

By Johnny Rodriguez

D

I remember the palm trees swaying

D

Across the river the sweet music playing

A

Down on the Rio Grande

D

Out on the levee with the full moon above me

D

My Mexican lady, Lord how she loved me

A

Down on the Rio Grande

E

Laughing, singing, in the warm night air

D

Loving that woman with the raven hair we were

Chorus:

A

Down on the Rio Grande

D

Strolling with my lover hand in hand

Bm

Oh I'd give anything to be

E A

Down on the Rio Grande

Endless highways and wide open spaces

Children smile with their sunburnt faces

Down on the Rio Grande

All the love that my lady was giving

Was the sweetest part of living

Down on the Rio Grande

And if these memories could take me there

I'd be loving that woman with the raven hair, I'd be

Chorus Twice
