River

       E                     A
I was born in the path of the winter
E
wind
                         F#m            B
I was raised where the mountains are old
      E                      A     E
Their springtime waters came dancing down
                   B          E
And I remember the tales they told

[Verse]
                          A       E
The whistling ways of my younger days
                 F#m          B
Too quickly have faded on by
    E                     A      E
But all of their memories linger on
                    B      E
Like the light in a fading sky

[Chorus]
E E/D#      A       B        E E/D#
River, take me along in your sunshine,
A           B            A     E
sing me a song Ever moving and winding and free
    A       E               A
You rolling old river, you changing old
E
river
      A           B
Let's you and me, river, run down to the
A E
sea

[Verse]
                          A         E
I've been to the city and back again

                        F#m
I've been moved by some things that I've
       B
learned
      E                           A
Met a lot of good people and I've called
      E
them friends
                         B       E
Felt the change when the seasons turned

[Verse]

I've heard all the songs that the
A        E
children sing
                F#m           B
And listened to love's melodies
      E                 A        E
I've felt my own music within me rise
                     B       E
Like the wind in the autumn trees

[Chorus]

E E/D#     A       B          E E/D#
River, take me along in your sunshine,
A           B            A     E
sing me a song Ever moving and winding and free
    A       E               A
You rolling old river, you changing old
E
river
      A           B
Let's you and me, river, run down to the
A E
sea

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
                             A       E
Someday when the flowers are blooming still
                 F#m               B
Someday when the grass is still green
   E                   A         E
My rolling waters will round the bend
                  B    E
And flow into the open sea

[Verse]

So, here's to the rainbow that's
A           E
followed me here
                  F#m               B
And here's to the friends that I know
    E                         E        A
And here's to the song that's within me now
               B          E
I will sing it wherever I go

[Chorus]
E E/D#      A       B         E E/D#
River, take me along in your sunshine,
A           B            A     E
sing me a song Ever moving and winding and free
    A       E               A
You rolling old river, you changing old
E
river
      A           B
Let's you and me, river, run down to the
A E
sea
