Diamond Rio - Down by the Riverside Chords

G                                 E
I took my baby out and bought her a ring
D                                C
Man, we planned a wedding come spring
G                               E
staring right into the eyes of my dreams
D                                 C
hand in hand down on one knee


G                     E
Down by the riverside
G                      E
Down by the riverside
G                          E
told me she would be my bride
D                  C
Down by the riverside


G                       E
She said yes as I held her tight
D                              C
We made love in the broad daylight
G                         E
now I know why the old folks say
D                                        C
get too close and you'll get swept away

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
C                           D                       G
Spring came and turned my baby's head around
C                    D                G
rains fell and now I feel like I might drown
C                                   D       G
under the weight of this fools crown


G                              E
theres a tree down by the riverside
D                        C
once it held it's head up high
G                               E
we carved our vows deep in it's side
D                                            C
now faithless love makes that willow cry......(chorus)
