Bridge

Rythm "E" Riff for forever while Gordie talks.........

Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire
Sucking up to someone just stoke the fire
Picking out the highlights of the scenery
Saw a little cloud looked a little like me

I had My hand in the river
My feet back up on the banks
Looked up to the Lord above and said hey man thanks
Some time I fell so good I gotta scream
She says Gordie baby I know exactly what you mean
She said, she said I swear to God she said

A A A G      A A A G

B                            A
My memory is muddy what's this river I'm in

B                            A [no chord]
New Orleans is sinking and I don't want to swim

End - slow and finish
