Written by Morgan C. Geer

E (022100@1)                            BWhere (x2444x@1)the sweet magnolia grows there's a river bend I know

E (022100@1)        E7 (020130@1)       AWhere (x02220@1)time ain't nothing to kill

E (022100@1)                  BIt's (x2444x@1)a crazy river. It shakes and shivers.

A (x02220@1)             EIt's (022100@1)a want that never will

E (022100@1)                    BMona (x2444x@1)took a bus to Las Vegas in a rush.

E (022100@1)       E7 (020130@1)      AWhen (x02220@1)she could not stand the rain.

E (022100@1)              BIn (x2444x@1)a fit of passion, culture clashing

A (x02220@1)                EThe (022100@1)sunshine turned to rain.

Chorus 1:
        B (x2444x@1)          ENow (022100@1)she sits and she wonders

B (x2444x@1)        E (022100@1)     E7"How'd (020130@1)I get so far under?"

A (x02220@1)             EOh, (022100@1)the spell of wasted youth

Ab (xx1114@1)                Awasted (x02220@1)time and that's the truth

E (022100@1)     B (x2444x@1)               E (022100@1) A (x02220@1)EOh (022100@1)lord I've cast my pearls before the swine.

You can ramble you can roam

B (x2444x@1)     
Disassemble and disown

E (022100@1)                         E7 (020130@1)   A (x02220@1)       
You can take back everything you've had to say.

E (022100@1)             BBut (x2444x@1)who can run from number 1?

A (x02220@1)        EOh (022100@1)to live is to obey.
