Dirt y old riv er must you keep roll ing, flow ing in to the night?

Peo ple so bus y make me feel diz zy, Tax i lights shine so bright.

But I (Gm)don’t

Ev ’ry day I look at the world from my (C)win dow

The chil ly, chil li est eve ning time.

set’s (C)fine.

Dirt y old riv

(C)Wat er loo sun

set’s, Wat er loo sun (C)set’s (Fmaj9)fine.
