It's tears in the [Am]river He's gone, gone for[F]ever
He's a sun that's [C]settin' So go on, girl, for[G]get him
Diamonds on the [Am]water Are here if you [F]want 'em
I swear, if we're to[C]gether I could love you [G]better
Than tears in the [Am]river [F] [C] [G]
In the [Am]heart of Alabama, where the [F]sweet magnolias bloom
There's a [C]young girl with a heart that's broke in [G]two
And she [Am]feels all out of luck now Doesn't [F]know, just feels so stuck now
All a[C]lone and hurt from what he put her [G]through
[Am]If you let him roll out with the [F]tide [C]I know I can [G]dry those
Tears in the [Am]river He's gone, gone for[F]ever
He's a sun that's [C]settin' So go on, girl, for[G]get him
Diamonds on the [Am]water Are here if you [F]want 'em
I swear, if we're to[C]gether I could love you [G]better
Than tears in the [Am]river [F] [C] [G]
There's a [Am]young boy with a guitar and he's [F]got some songs for you
Whatcha [C]say, girl, if he wrote you a line or [G]two?
C'mon [Am]hop up in this truck now Drive to [F]Nashville, chasin' luck now
Watch the [C]memories wash away in that rear[G]view
[Am]If you let him roll out with the [F]tide [C]I know I can [G]dry those
Tears in the [Am]river He's gone, gone for[F]ever
He's a sun that's [C]settin' So go on, girl, for[G]get him
Diamonds on the [Am]water Are here if you [F]want 'em
I swear, if we're to[C]gether I could love you [G]better
Than tears in the [Am]river [F] [C] [G]
Tears in the [Am]river He's gone, gone for[F]ever
I swear, if we're to[C]gether I could love you [G]better
Than tears in the [Am]river
