Intro.:  | (G)  | (A7)  | (C) (D) | (G)  |

On the (G)Oklahoma shore (C) of that old red river
I (D)stand right here and curse my pride (G)
(G) That river runs deep, (C) the current is strong
And the (D)woman I love is on the other side (G)

How did the (F#m)love, (Em)we made together, break apart (D) and drift away
Leave me lost (C) and lonely on this crim-(D)-son bank

(Chorus)
Red River (G)Blue, God, pull me (A7)through
I'd (C)walk through fire if that (D)bridge hadn't burned in (G)two (D)
Texoma (G)sky tears in my (A7) eyes
She said good-(C)bye and now (D) I'm red river (G)blue

Inst.:  | (Am)  | (C) (D)

They say (G)everything is bigger (C) under that Texas moon
I'll bet my (D) right hand you wont find a bigger (G)fool
(G) She's probably (F#m)smil-(Em)ing somewhere tonight in someone (D)else's arms
I'm here drag-(C)ging the muddy bottom for pieces (G)of my heart

(Chorus)
Red River (G)Blue, God, pull me (A7)through
I'd (C)walk through fire if that (D)bridge hadn't burned in (G)two (D)
Texoma (G)sky tears in my (A7) eyes
She said good-(C)bye and now (D) I'm red river (Em)blue
