Rio

  D
I bought him down in Houston from a 
cowboy friend of mine
   A
He said he'd named him Rio, got him 
on the border line
     D
He's bred just like the river, and 
he runs as free and wild
       F#m                         
A good horse don't get no better, 
      E
he can weather any mile
          A/D                      
He said, "Why don't you take him 
                    E
out past the lake and let him run?
    A/D                         
And you'll come to know that red 
                    E
turns to gold in a setting sun"

[Chorus]
      A                      F#m
Every valley and mountain, I ride up
 and down them
  E               D    A/D
I go wherever Rio goes
         A                    F#m
From the top to the bottom, I don't 
try to stop him
       E               D    A/D  E
I just go wherever Rio goes

            D
And when we came up on the river, I 
could tell the horse had changed
          A
There was somethin' 'bout that 
water, like it was runnin' through 
his veins
         D
And I'll never understand it, how he
 knew just what to do
       F#m                     
In the shadows of the darkness, 
           E
hell, you couldn't see the moon
    A/D                            
And I don't believe that Rio could 
          E
see each step he'd take
    A/D                            
But sure as the rain, he finds his 
          E
way to the river bank

[Chorus]
      A                      F#m
Every valley and mountain, I ride up
 and down them
  E               D    A/D
I go wherever Rio goes
         A                    F#m
From the top to the bottom, I don't 
try to stop him
       E               D    A/D  
I just go wherever Rio goes
E  A/D  E


[Bridge]
             A/D                   
Oh he said, "Why don't you take him
                       E
 out past the lake and let him run?
    A/D                            
And I came to find my own peace of 
              E
mind with the risin' sun

[Chorus]
      A                      F#m
Every valley and mountain, I ride up
 and down them
  E               D    A/D
I go wherever Rio goes
         A                    F#m
From the top to the bottom, I don't 
try to stop him
       E               D    A/D
I just go wherever Rio goes
      A                       
Every trail, every turn, every 
 F#m
lesson I learned
  E                         D     
I followed my heart and his soul, 
     F#m        D
so I go, I just go
             A/D   E   A/D  E
Wherever Rio goes    Oh!
             A/D   E   A/D  E
Wherever Rio goes
