[Verse]
G D
Driving home on the Mohawk Trail last night
Em C
Am I nameless as the dry leaves in my headlights
G D
When I saw a state trooper running out onto the French King Bridge
Em C G D Em C
Flashlight sweeping the darkness over the edge
[Verse]
G D
On a fair day you can see the Green Mountains turn blue
Em C
Standing on the French King watching the river roll through
G D
And on a moonless night the black wind howls and moans
Em C
And the river moves like a serpent a hundred feet below
[Chorus]
G D Am
So roll on river, restless for the sea
C
Take this valley, wash it clean
G D Am
Who can say where a soul will find peace
C
Who will keep the river from the sea
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G D
I thought of a shepherd, his flock bedded down for the night
Em C
And the eyes of the wolves moving just beyond the firelight
G D
And my own little child asleep in his bed
Em C
As I drove on into the darkness up ahead
[Chorus]
G D Am
So roll on river, restless for the sea
C
Take this valley, wash it clean
G D Am
Who can say where a soul will find peace
Who will keep the river from
C G
Who will keep the river from the sea
