[A]Every river searches for the sea
Every life runs it's own dest[E]iny
[D]Canyons white and wild [F#m]streches [E]calm and m[F#m]ild
[E]Cutting through the stones of hist[A]ory
[A]Rio Grande runs south to Mexico
From the highway I have touched its [E]shores
[D]Reynosa to Sante Fe and [F#m]back the [E]other[F#m] way
[E]I've had my life planned by the Rio [A]Grande
[D]An unbroken chain [F#m]snow and tears and rain
[E]Cutting thru my soul and to my [A]veins
[D]Then the waters rise paint the [F#m]Rocky Mountain skies
[E]One more circle around the world again
One more year rolls down the Rio [A]Grande
SOLO
[A]Our forefathers crossed the muddy line
[A]Pilgrims passing leaving tracks in [E]time
[D]One more takes a stand by the [F#m]water [E]by the [F#m]land
[E]Shifting like the sand by the Rio [A]Grande
[D]An unbroken chain [F#m]snow and tears and rain
[E]Cutting thru my soul and to my [A]veins
[D]Then the waters rise paint the [F#m]Rocky Mountain skies
[E]One more circle around the world again
One more year rolls down the Rio [A]Grande
[E]One more circle around the world again
One more year rolls down the Rio [A]Grande
