The River Driver Great Big Sea
I was just the age of sixteen when I first went on the drive,
After s[A]ix months hard labor, at h[E]ome I did arr[B]ive.
I c[A]ourted with a pretty girl, t'was h[E]er caused me to [C#m]roam,
Now [E]I'm just a river d[C#m]river and I'm [G#m]far away from [C#m]home.
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/great_big_sea/the_river_driver_crd.html )
I'll [E]eat when I am hungry and I'll drink when I am dry,
Get d[A]runk whenever I'm ready, get s[E]ober by and [B]by,
And [A]if this river don't drown me, it's d[E]own I'll mean to r[B]oam,
For I[E]'m a river dr[A]iver and I'm [C#m]far away from h[E]ome.
I'll build a lonesome castle upon some mountain high,
Where she can sit and view me as I go passing by
Where she can sit and view me as I go marching on,
For I'm a river driver and I'm far away from home.
I'll eat when I am hungry and I'll drink when I am dry,
Get drunk whenever I'm ready, get sober by and by,
And if this river don't drown me, it's down I'll mean to roam,
For I'm a river driver and I'm far away from home.
