Grace Potter And The Nocturnals - Mad Mad River

this is a brand new song that has only been played a few times . i hope these
lyrics are right when it gets recorded!

D A
the water line
D A
is mighty high
D
it rained so hard
A
even my tears couldn’t dry
D A
and the valley went still
D A
and all the lines went down
E D A
the day the mad river got a hold of this town

chorus :
E
and the river rolls
D A
one foot at a time
D E
over the bridges
D A
and the old water lines
D E
but there’s hope in the valley
D A
after the hundred year flood
D E
because the mad mad river
D A
runs in our blood

D A
old lady jane
D A
she refused to go
D
she sat there on her porch
A
as the water was touching her toes
D A
and she closed her eyes
D A
softly singin a tune
E D A
she said if the mad river is goin then i’m goin too
