Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]
[C][F][G]
[F][Dm][Dm]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]There's a little girl out lyin[G]' on her own
[Em]She's got a broken heart[Am]
[Dm]She's not the kind
to take [G]you down for long
[Em]She knows and plays it smart[Am]

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Dm]And if she's comin[G]'
[Em]she's showed no [Am]mark
[Dm]She's heard no whist[G]le blowin'
[Em]from the dark[Am]
[Dm]She feels like leavi[G]n'
and [Em]she don't know w[Am]hy
[Dm]Without no bridges she's trapped,
[G]so I sigh

[Chorus 1]
[C]Don't cross the riv[F]er
if you [C]can't swim the [F]tide
[C]Don't try den[F]yin' livin' on [C]the other sid[F]e
All your [G]life
You were [F]on your own

[Bridge 1]
[Dm][Em][Am]
[Am]If you want you can ri[F]de my tr[C]ain
And [E]soon forget
the reason that you're [C]leaving
[F]Lose yourself and [G]then some[C]time
Maybe even save yourself some [F]grievin'

[Interlude 1]
[Dm]Oh, [G]oh, [Em]oh, o[Am]h
[Dm]Oh, [G]oh, oh, oh, [C]oh

[Chorus 2]
[C]Don't cross the riv[F]er
if you [C]can't swim the [F]tide
[C]Don't try den[F]yin' livin' on [C]the other sid[F]e
[Repeat and fade]
