Green River:Waylon Jennings.
#11 on BB Hot Country on RCA Records
in 1966.
(Intro)
 E
(Verse 1)
E                                      A
Green River, I've come back to you, do you
remember me?
                E              Gb        B
Do you remember Molly with the soft blue eyes?
  E                               Am
I left here with a lot of dreams, none of them
     A
came true.
                       B               E
What I wanted was here waiting all the time.
(Verse 2)
E     B                              E
Green River, did she come here every evening,
         B                         E
like the neighbors say she did, so faithfully.
      A                        E
Green River, has she gone away forever?
         Gb                     B
She just disappeared one day as she gave up on me.
(Verse 3)
E            B      E                  A
Green River, if you see her, won't you tell her
I'll return.
                          E     Gb              B
All I've brought her is myself, and this little dream.
       E                               A
Please tell her that I love her and my lesson I have
learned.
(Outro)
                      Bm                  E
Green River, tell her please come back to me.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
