Just Across The Rio Grande by Reba McEntire
Just Across The Rio Grande
INTRO: C
Em7
The lights of Laredo dance on the water
F C
And shine in a young man’s eyes
He stands on the border
Em7 F G
And dreams of paradise
C Em7
He’s heard crazy stories of how people live
F D
Over in the promised land
C Am
He heard they eat three meals a day
F G C
Just across the Rio Grande
Em
He’s got a wife name Maria and a baby named Rose
F C
And another one to feed on the way
Two willing hands
Em7 F G
That couldn’t find work today
C Em7
He stares at the river and curses the future
F D
That he can’t understand
C Am
He knows the child would have a chance
F G C
Just across the Rio Grande
CHORUS:
C G C
It’s only a river
F C G
That’s not so deep or wide
C Am
A boy can throw a stone across
Dm G
And reach the other side
C G C F
It’s just some muddy water
D
Cutting through the land
C Am
But a man can make a dream come true
F G C
Just across the Rio Grande
Em7
The lights of Laredo dance on the water
F C
And shine in a young man’s eyes

Em7 F G
And dreams of paradise

He’s heard crazy stories of how people live
F D
Over in the promised land
C Am
And sometimes it seems like god must live
F G C
Just across the Rio Grande
CHORUS:
C G C
It’s only a river

A boy can throw a stone across
