Verse 1
(G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) I'm a -packin'
my grip, I'm a -movin' on,
for I'm a (A major) -ramblin' (D major) laddie.
And if the (G major) boat don't stop
at the (D major) Philadelphia (A major) dock,
I'll go on to Cincinnati.
(D major) I'm a (G major) -movin' on, I'm a (D major) -movin' on,
for I (G major) can't stay here forever. (D major)
Oh, the (G major) steam is a -risin'
and the (D major) big wheels are turnin'
Now we're (A major) movin' on down the
(D major) river (G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major)
Well, Philadelphia's a fine old town
And so is Cincinnati
These (G major) streets all lined
with the (D major) ten -dollar bills
And the (A major) pretty little girls are (D major) plenty
So I'm a (G major) -movin' on, I'm a (D major) -movin' on
I (G major) can't stay here (D major) forever
Oh, the (G major) steam is a -risin'
and the (D major) big wheels are turnin' out
(A major) Movin' on down the (D major) river
(G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major)
Don't choose the girl with
the rovin' eye
Don't choose the girl with money
But (G major) choose you the one with
the (D major) truest heart
And (A major) kiss her and call her (D major) honey
And I'm a (G major) -movin' on,
I'm (D major) a -movin' on
Girl, I (G major) can't stay here (D major) forever
Oh, the (G major) steam is a -risin'
and the (D major) big wheels are (A major) turnin'
I'm a -movin' on down
the (D major) river (G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major)
Oh, I love that girl, she's a dear little thing
But the tears, they fallin' blind me
Girl, I (G major) can't help but thinkin'
(D major) once in a while
about the (A major) girls I've left behind me
(D major) So I'm (G major) a -movin' on, I'm
a (D major) -movin' on
Before I (G major) can't stay here (D major) forever
Oh, the (G major) steam is a -risin'
And the (D major) big wheels a -turnin'
I'm (A major) a -movin' on down the (D major) river
I'm (G major) a -movin' on, I'm a (D major) -movin' on
Before I (G major) can't stay here (D major) forever
Oh, the (G major) steam is a -risin'
And the (D major) big wheels a -turnin'
I'm (A major) a -movin' on down (D major) the river you
