Railroads And Riverboats – Jim Croce
Nghệ sĩ: Jim Croce
Hợp Âm Chuẩn
This is the right tab, my first tab!!!
It sounds good, this is a beautiful forgotten song of the marvellous Jim Croce,
from the lost LP "Facets".
With the voice of the wife Ingrid Croce.
It is perfect for a duet.
CAPO 2
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
The railroads and the riverboats that bred the mighty man
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
That we read about and we dream about, the men who built this land
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And the farmers and the lumbermen and the men who worked the mills
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the poor hard working miners who died inside the hills
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
While the rivers that flow are the blood of our land
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And the trucks they keep rumbling on the great concrete band
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And the railroads keep pushing to be all they once were
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And the immigrants by the boat load in a dozen different tones
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Sang of freedom in the new land, climbed the ladder rung by rung
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Some to Boston, some to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and St. Paul
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the old ways led to new days, they were welcome one and all
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
While the rivers that flow are the blood of our land
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And the trucks they keep rumbling on the great concrete band
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And the railroads keep pushing to be all they once were
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
With the railroads and the riverboats and the bread lines far behind
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the days we sang together, long gone but still in mind
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And the men who came before us, men who brought us to today
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And the story still unravels from the dreams of yesterday
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
While the rivers that flow are the blood of our land
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And the trucks they keep rumbling on the great concrete band
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And the railroads keep pushing to be all they once were
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her
ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And nature is calling, no one's listening to her
