Video of me playing it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtKFz0-AlZE
I had the chords perfectly aligned to the words, but this site is determined to screw them up. The video may be useful.

Am C
Down by the river by the boats,
Em G
Where everybody goes to be alone
Am C
Where you wont see any rising sun,
Em D Am
Down to the river we will run
Am C
When by the water we drink to the dregs,
Em G
Look at the stones on the river bed
Am C
I can tell from your eyes,
Em D Am
You've never been by the riverside
Am C
Down by the water the riverbed,
Em G
Somebody calls you somebody says
Am C
swim with the current and float away,
Em D
Down by the river everyday
Am Em G D Am Em G
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
F Am Em G D F Am
And I don't know why I go the way, Down by the riverside
Am C
When that old river runs past your eyes,
Em G
To wash off the dirt on the riverside
Am C
Go to the water so very near,
Em D Am
The river will be your eyes and ears
Am C
I walk to the borders on my own,
Em G
To fall in the water just like a stone
Am C
Chilled to the marrow in them bones,
Em D
Why do I go here all alone
Am Em G D Am Em G
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
F Am Em G D F Am
And I don't know why I go the way, Down by the riverside
