Eb 
Leaves are fallin' down on the beautiful ground 
          Cm 
I heard a story from the man in red 
              Eb 
He said 'The leaves are fallin' down 

Such a beautiful sound 
       Cm 
Son, I think you'd better go ahead 
        Eb 
But you always hold your head up high 
              Cm 
'Cause it's a long, long, long way down 
              Eb 
This town was meant for passing through 

Boy it ain't nothin' new 
           Cm 
Now go and show 'em that the world stayed round 
            G#                  Gm    Fm   Eb  Eb  G#  Gm  Bb 
But it's a long, long, long way down 
           Eb 
You better run for the hills 

Before they burn 
              Cm 
Listen to the sound of the world 

Don't watch it turn 
               Fm            Gm 
I just want to show you what I know 
                       G# 
And catch you when the current 
        Bb 
Lets you go 
                 Eb 
Or should I just get along with myself 
            Cm 
I never did get along with everybody else 
                 Eb 
I've been tryin' hard to do what's right 
             Cm                            G# 
But you know I could stay here, all night 
                                   Fm 
And watch the clouds fall from the sky 
     Bb              Eb       Cm 
This river is wild 
               Eb       Cm    Bb 
This river is wild 

Eb 
Run for the hills before they burn 
              Cm 
Listen to the sound of the world 

Don't watch it turn 

I shake a little
Eb Sometimes I'm nervous when I talk
I shake a little
Cm Sometimes I hate the line I walk Fm Gm I just want to show you what I know G# And catch you when the current Bb Lets you go Eb Or should I just get along with myself Cm I never did get along with everybody else Eb I've been tryin' hard to do what's right Cm G# But you know I could stay here, all night Fm Bb And watch the clouds fall from the sky Cm Bb/D Bb Cm G# Because this river is wild G# Bb Gm G# Cm Godspeed ya, boy Cm Bb/D Bb Cm G# G# Bb Gm G# This river is wild Eb Now Adam's taking bombs and he's stuck on his mom Cm Because that bitch keeps tryin' to make him pray Eb He's with the hippie in the park combing over the dark Cm Just tryin' to get some of that little-girl play G# Gm You better run for the hills before they burn Fm Listen to the sound of the world Eb Don't watch it turn Fm Gm I just want to show you what I know G# And catch you when the current Bb Lets you go Eb Or should I get along with myself G# Gm I never did get along with everybody else Bb Cm I've been tryin' hard to do what's right Eb G# But you know I could stay here All night G# Fm Bb And watch the clouds fall from the sky G# Bb This pain is hell in me tonight Cm Bb/D Bb Cm G# Because this river is wild G# Bb Gm G# Cm Godspeed ya, boy Cm Bb/D Bb Cm G# G# Bb Gm G# This river is wild Cm Bb/D Bb Cm G# Because this river is wild G# Bb Gm G# Cm Godspeed ya, boy Cm Bb/D Bb Cm G# G# Bb Gm G# Eb This river is wild Eb And cars are everywhere G# Raisin' dust at the fairground Eb Bb I don't think I ever seen so many headlights Cm But there's somethin' pullin' me Eb The circus and the crew Bb Well they're just passin' through Cm Bb G# Makin' sure the merry still goes 'round Bb Eb But it's a long, long, long way down
