[Verse 1]
Am C Am
Come listen and I’ll tell a tale of hardy canyoneers
C F C
That breed of men the river rats who live without the fears
F C F C
Of common ordinary men whose worries sure are small
Am C Am
Compared to those who flirt with death within that high grey wall
[Chorus]
C G Am F
What’s in a man to make him thirst for the kind of life he knows is cursed?
C F Am C
He’ll die a lonely river rat, foolhardy canyoneer
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Am C Am
Do you ever wonder what you’d do when all the chips were down
C F C
If you doubt you’d do what a man would do when danger comes around
F C F C
Then take the test to prove the case to see if courage calls
Am C Am
As waves leap thirty feet or more on the trip through Lava Falls
[Chorus]
C G Am F
What’s in a man to make him thirst for the kind of life he knows is cursed?
C F Am C
He’ll die a lonely river rat, foolhardy canyoneer
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Am C Am
At night at rest on a rocky beach he hears a hairy sigh
C F C
Of the lonely phantom of the gorge whose mournful voices cry
F C F C
Although we ran the rapids wild and with our lives did pay
Am C Am
We welcome you, you canyoneers, who come this dismal way
[Chorus]
C G Am F
What’s in a man to make him thirst for the kind of life he knows is cursed?
C F Am C
He’ll die a lonely river rat, foolhardy canyoneer
