verse 1
D
I bought him down in Houston from a cowboy friend of mine
A
He said he'd named him Rio, got him on the border line
D
He's bred just like the river, and he runs as free and wild
F#m E
A good horse don't get no better, he can weather any mile

He said, "Why don't you take him out past the lake and let him run?
A/D E
And you'll come to know that red turns to gold in a setting sun"
A F#m
Every valley and mountain, I ride up and down them

I go wherever Rio goes
A F#m
From the top to the bottom, I don't try to stop him
E D A/D E
I just go wherever Rio goes
verse 2
D
And when we came up on the river, I could tell the horse had changed
A
There was somethin' 'bout that water, like it was runnin' through his veins
D
And I'll never understand it, how he knew just what to do
F#m E
In the shadows of the darkness, hell, you couldn't see the moon
A/D E
And I don't believe that Rio could see each step he'd take

But sure as the rain, he finds his way to the river bank

Every valley and mountain, I ride up and down them
