[Verse 1]
[D]I was born by a river,
but [G]it was paved with cement
[D]Yeah I was born [G]by a river,

Still [C]I stand out in that old dry river,
[A]and wish that I was [D]soaking wet

[Verse 2]
[G]Someday it's [C]gon[G] na[D] rain,
[G]someday it's gon[C]na [D]pour
[G]Someday this [C]old [D]dry river,
[C]it well, won't be [G]dry anymore
[D]

[Verse 3]
I played in the orange groves,
[G]'til they bulldozed the[D] trees
I [G]played in the orange groves,
'til they bulldozed down all [D]the trees
Now I [C]stand out in those dead stumps,
and [A]I smell the blossoms on t[D]he leaves

[Verse 4]
[G]Someday it's [D]gonna rain,
[G]someday it's [C]gon[G]na [D]pour
[G]Someday tho[C]se old[G] dead tre[D]es,
[C]won't be dea[G]d anymor[D]e

Now I'm [C]as dry as that old river,
[A]and I'm as dead as those old [D]trees

[Verse 6]
[G]Someday it's [D]gonna rain,
[G]someday it's gon[D]na pour
