Down On The Rio Grande — Johnny Rodriguez
Chords and lyrics for Down On The Rio Grande by Johnny Rodriguez (key of A).
Verse 1
[D]I remember the palm trees swaying
Across the river the sweet music playing
[A]Down on the Rio Grande
[D]Out on the levee with the full moon above me
My Mexican lady Lord how she loved me
[A]Down on the Rio Grande
[E]Laughing singing in the warm night air
[D]Loving that woman with the raven hair we were
[A]Down on the Rio Grande
[D]Strolling with my lover hand in hand
Oh I'd [Bm]give anything to be
[E]Down on the Rio [A]Grande
[D]Endless highways and wide open spaces
Children smile with their sun burnt faces
[A]Down on the Rio Grande
[D]All the love that my lady was giving
Was the sweetest part of living
[A]Down on the Rio Grande
[E]And if these memories could take me there
[D]I'd be loving my woman with the raven hair I'd be
[A]Down on the Rio Grande
[D]Strolling with my lover hand in hand
Oh I'd [Bm]give anything to be
[E]Down on the Rio [A]Grande
Down on the Rio Grande
[D]Strolling with my lover hand in hand
Oh I'd [Bm]give anything to be
[E]Down on the Rio [A]Grande
