These are just the simple facts I will relate to you
G/AAsus4
Though they are not connected, each and every one is true
DAsus4
If they seem a bit untidy, well unravelling them is fun
G/AAsus4
I will not stand corrected, I have not harmed anyone
CHORUS:
FGD
I just let it ride
FGD
Ride, let it ride

Leave on the evening tide
FGD
Just let it ride
VERSE 2:

When I listen to my heart, I sometimes fail to find
DFGAsus4
One sane and simple answer on the bright side of my mind
FGDFGD
Even when I'm sleeping, I can't seem to unwind
FGDAsus4
I just let it ride
VERSE 3:
Asus4
I knew a man from Windsor who went to Detroit every night
G/AAsus4
And Stateside of the tunnel, customs agents gave him flight
DAsus4
He threw his stash in the river and his bedroll on the ground
G/AAsus4
And when they finally got there, a sleeping man was all that they found
CHORUS:
FGD
He just let it ride
FGD
Ride, let it ride
FG
Leave on the evening tide
FGD
Just let it ride
VERSE 4:
FG
Hear the steeple bells ring out above my lobster pots
DFGAsus4
I might be out here fishing, man, but that ain't where it stops
FGDFGD
The mouths I feed are many and they all say, "Thanks a lot"
FGDAsus4
They just let it ride
VERSE 5:
Asus4
One day when I'm old and grey and consider what's gone by
G/AAsus4
I always will be proud of every tear I've ever cried
DAsus4
And all of the old jokes we told around the candle light
G/AAsus4
To all those tender damsels who had helped us in the night
CHORUS:
FGD
They just let it ride
FGD
Ride, let it ride
FG
Leave on the evening tide
FGDD
Just let it ride
FGDDb
I'm gonna let it ride

Here's to the girls from London and the ones from Montreal
G/AAsus4
We never will forget them, we still fantasize them all
DAsus4
I knew one in St. Louis on a Missouri afternoon
G/AAsus4
I met one up in Shanghai and another in Rangoon
CHORUS:
FGD
I just let it ride
FGD
Ride, let it ride
FG
Leave on the evening tide
FGD
Just let it ride
CHORUS:
FGD
Ride, ride, ride
FGD
I'm gonna let it ride
FG
Leave on the evening tide
FGD
Just let it ride
