Red River Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I remember campin' all night
[Em]down by the river's edge
[D]Skinny -dippin' by the bright moonlight,
divin' [Am]off the ledge
Skippin' rocks across the water,
[Em]fishin' on an old trout line
[D]Kickin' frogs till the early mornin'
Smokin' the dry [Am]crossfire
[D]Send me back home where the
Red
River rolls
[Am]Send me back to
Louisiana
[D]Take me back down where
the white water flows
To the
[Am]Cajun promised land
[D]Give me my line, my old hero
[Am]Get me down as quick as you can
[F]Send me back home where the
[G]Red
River [Am]run s
Won't you [F]send me back home where the
[G]Red
River [Am]rolls
Riding down the rapids,
in a [Em]pipe stuffed in a tube
[D]Eating supper on the ground,
made of fish [Am]an d catfish stew
Stayed awake all night,
just to [Em]hear that wildcat scream
[D]Tellin' tales by the campfire,
about the girls and our [Am]dreams
Won't you [D]send me back home
where the red river rolls
Send [Am]me back to
Louisiana
[D]Take me back down where
the white water flows
To the
[Am]Cajun promised land
[D]Give me my life and more heroes
[Am]Get me there as quick as you can
[F]Send me back home where
[G]the red river roll[Am]s
Won't you [F]send me back home with a
[G]Red
River
[Am]Road[D][Am][D]
[Am][D][Am]
Send [F]me back home with [G]a
Red
River
[Am]Road
Won't you [F]send me back home
where the [G]red river [Am]rolls?
Send me back [D]home,
send me [Am]back home
Send me back [D]home, back to
[Am]Louisiana
Send me back [D]home, send me back home
[Am]Get me now as quick as you can
[F]Send me back home where
[G]the red river [Am]rolls
Brother, won't you [F]send me back home
where the [G]red river roll[Am]s?
[D]Send me back home where the red river rolls,

Take [D]me back down where the white mornin' rolls,

and [Am]get me down as quick as you can
Send me back home where
