[Verse 1]
[D]The [F#m]sun bu[G]rns[A] th[D]e snow[F#m]
[Bm]high on the [A]mountains
It [D]runs and [F#m]it grows [G]as [A]it [D]falls
Silt and [Bm]soil, [E]down it [A]boils
[D]Down to the [A]valleys
the [D]gold river [F#m]rolls to [G]the [A]pla[D]ins.
The rangeland lies [F#m]high
[Bm]up from the ri[A]ver.
[D]The cool is our dry
[F#m]where the short [G]grass [A]grows.[D]
Fields [Bm]of hay, c[E]ottonwood sh[A]ade,
[D]green patch of [A]home.
Through [D]the high dusty [F#m]land
the [G]river [A]flo[D]ws.
Early evening [F#m]light
[Bm]Boys practice [A]roping the [D]daybage [F#m]away,
the [G]night [A]rolls [D]on.
Lives of [Bm]pride, [E]men who [A]ride.
[D]They keep the [A]old skills
that [D]came up [F#m]the trail from [G]Mex[A]ico.[D][F#m][Bm][A]
[D][F#m][G][A][D][A][Bm][E]
[A][D][A][F#m][G][A][D]
The Long River [F#m]winds
through [Bm]green years and [A]dry years
[D]Bred them in the [F#m]spring,
[G]ship [A]them in [D]the fall
A new boat [Bm]for the m[E]eadows, [A]oh
[D]Cycle of [A]changes in [D]this
changeless land
[F#m]Where the sh[G]ort grass [A]grows[D]
In this changeless [F#m]land
where the [G]short [A]grass [D]grows you
