Money for Floods Lyrics

CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: Em C D Am Em C D Em
My name is Eliza, I live by the river
My daughter Louise will be three in July
If July ever comes, it's beginning to feel like
The water will never surrender the field
CHORUS:
Everyone knows that rivers will swell
They always find money
They always find money
They always find money for floods
INSTRUMENTAL: Em C D Am Em C D B
The President came in a green helicopter
He and the Governor walked all around
My sister broke down and he gave her a hug
Told her he'd do everything that he could
CHORUS:
Everyone knows that rivers will swell
They always find money
They always find money
They always find money for floods
INSTRUMENTAL: Em C D Am Em C D (2x) Em
When I was sixteen, I went out with a boy
I'd tell you his name if I thought it would help
He told me he loved me and tossed me a girl
The bigger my belly, the faster he ran
CHORUS:
Everyone knows that rivers will swell
They always find money
They always find money
They always find money for floods
INSTRUMENTAL: Em C D Am Em C D B7
My name is Eliza, I live by the river
My daughter Louise will be three in July
If July ever comes, it's beginning to feel like
The water will never surrender the field
