Biography:
Pat Green was born in San Antonio and raised in Waco, Texas, the eighth of nine siblings. His father was a stage actor, and Green fell in love with the musicals his father acted in.
Green began his musical career when he was 18 and in college at Texas Tech in Lubbock. "I started playing guitar to pick up the chicks," Green laughs. "Before that, I only sang in the shower. I could mimic other people's voices. It took me a long time to find my own voice, but once I did, I became very comfortable with it.

"Down To The River"
by: Pat Green and Kirk Zander
Album: Dancehall Dreamer & Here We Go - The Live Album
Capo: 3rd Fret
G (mute)
Take me down to the river
D
Where I can hold your body close to mine
C D
We'd listen to the rhythm
C D
Of that old water rollin
C D G
You can stay with me until the morning light
G
I found you in a Louisiana roadside park
D
Beat up, broke down no place left to turn
C D C D
I took you back to Texas under a harvest moon
C D G
We found a little place to call our own
G
We shared all the hopes and dreams of our younger years
D
Married at the tender age of twenty-one
C D C D
Rollin' down the highways, dirt roads and the byways
C D G
Would you like to drive so I would go shotgun
[Chorus]
G
We'd go down to the river
D
Where I could hold your body close to mine
C D
We'd listen to the rhythm
C D
Of that old water rollin
C D G
You can stay with me until the morning light
G
Somewhere through the year somebody turned your head
D
And has taken my sweet love so far from me
C D
Yeah he swept you off to Boulder
C D
Where the air it gets much colder
C D G
Than this southern boy would ever like to see
G
I think of calling you on lonely nights
D
When being alone gets the best of me
C D
Yeah but this here whiskey bottle
C D
Will take me to a place
C D G
Where you and I will always be
[Chorus]
A
When you came back home everybody said I was a fool
E
'Cause I took you back without a word to say
D E D E
But I couldn't go on living thinkin' about all I was missin'
D E A
And I don?t give a damn about what those people say.
[Chorus]
A
We'd go down to the river
E
Where I could hold your body close to mine
D E
We'd listen to the rhythm
D E
Of that old water rollin
D E A
You can stay with me until the morning light
A
I wanna go down to the river
A
Take me down to the river
A
I wanna go down to the river
