Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Well [G]I've been living too close
to the [C]Rio [G]Grande[D][G]
Gotta move it on up to a [C]higher [G]land[D][G]
Now the river has turned
in[C]to a [G]flood[D][G]
[D]And [G]the sun's the color of [C]real [G]blood
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][C][G][D][G][C]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 2]
Well I got those [G]speakers
[C]in [G]Oki[D]naw[G]a
But they're too damn heavy
for my [C]little [G]boat[D][G]
So we're rowing to the corner and
I [C]don't look [G]back[D][G]
Driving to her mother's in a [C]U- Haul [D]van
[G][D]

[Interlude 2]
[G][C][G][D][G][C]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
Between the [G]wife and the
ex and the [C]Government
[G]Man[D] I [G]never met a dollar
that [C]wasn't [G]spent[D][G]
Now the sun is shinin' on
[C]to the [G]East[D][G]
And it's dark where the river
and the [C]highway [G]meet

[Verse 4]
[D]
[G]Man I've been living too close
to the [C]Rio [G]Grande[D][G]
I've been living too close
to the [C]Rio [G]Grande[D]
[G]I've been living too close
to the [C]Rio [G]Grande[D][G]
I've been living too close
to the [C]Rio [G]Grande
[D][G]
