Railroads And Riverboats Jim Croce

Lyrics and guitar chords

Guitar chords Katarzyna Szostak

GThe railroads and the riveDrboats that Gbred the mighty maCn
That we Gread about and we Ddream about, theC men who built this laDnd
And the Gfarmers and the luDmbermen and theG men who worked the millCs
And the Gpoor hard working Dminers whoC died inside the hillDs

While the rivers that Gflow are the blood of our lanCd
And the trucks they keep rDumbling on the great concrete baGnd
And the railroads keep Gpushing to be all they once werCe
And nature is Dcalling, no one's listening to heGr

And the Gimmigrants by the boat loaDd in a Gdozen different toneCs
Sang of fGreedom in the new lDand, climbed thCe ladder rung by ruDng
Some to GBoston, some to DPittsburgh, PhilaGdelphia and St. PaCul
And the old Gways led to new Ddays, they Cwere welcome one and aDll

While the rivers that Gflow are the blood of our lanCd
And the trucks they keep rDumbling on the great concrete baGnd
And the railroads keep Gpushing to be all they once werCe
And nature is Dcalling, no one's listening to heGr

With the raGilroads and the rDiverboats and the Gbread lines far behiCnd
And the dGays we sang toDgether, long Cgone but still in miDnd
And the mGen who came bDefore us, men who Gbrought us to today C
And the sGtory still uDnravels from theC dreams of yesterdaDy

While the rivers that Gflow are the blood of our lanCd
And the trucks they keep rDumbling on the great concrete baGnd
And the railroads keep Gpushing to be all they once werCe
And nature is Dcalling, no one's listening to heGr
And nature is Dcalling, no one's listening to heGr
