Proud Mary
Creedence Clearwater Revival

Intro:  C  A  C  A  C  A  G  F  G

D
Left a good job in the city, 

workin for the man every night and day,

But I never lost a minute of sleepin’, 

worryin ‘bout the way things might have been.

Chorus:
A                          Bm
Big wheel keep on turnin’, Proud Mary keep on burnin’,
D
Rollin’ rollin’ rollin on the river.

D
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,

Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans,

But I never saw the good side of the city,

‘til I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen.

Chorus

D
If you come down to the river,

Bet you’re gonna find some people who live,

You don’t have to worry ‘cause you got no money,

People on the river are happy to give.

Chorus x 2
