Guitar chords with lyrics
- Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)
- Key: G
Verse 1: G Do you remember, you took my hand, Am And we walked out across the fields, D G Down the lane and over the railway line G Our hearts were racing, our feet were chasing, Am G We were looking for a hideaway, getting lost and losing track of time Chorus: G Am We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Where the water ran slow, swear our lovin' ran free. G Am We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Just layin' low, my true love and me
Verse 2:
G
You let your long brown hair hang down
Am
You saw your dress was swayin' in the breeze
D G
We were skimmin' stones out across the stream
G
You had a lazy style and a care free smile
Am
You were a breathless beauty to behold
D G
The sweetest sight, my eyes had ever seen
Chorus:
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Where the water ran slow, swear our lovin' ran free.
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Just layin' low, my true love and me
Instrumental:
G Am D G Am D G
Verse 3:
G
Well water's risin', the stream's dividing
Am
The river keeps rollin' on,
D G
Paper boats and pleasures drift away
G
And you may be just a memory
Am
But you're shining like a distant star
D G
Seems to me as clear as yesterday
Chorus:
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Where the water ran slow, swear our lovin' ran free.
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G D G
Just layin' low, my true love and me Last updated:
