VERSE:
    C majorC          G+G    A minorAm
I can close my eyes and it takes me back
  C majorC                FF
To two young lovers on that riverbank
    C majorC             G+G    A minorAm
To the sounds of the wind and the whip-poor-will
     C majorC               FF
And the way that your bare skin would feel

    C majorC            G+G    A minorAm
As we laid in the sun I could see your eyes
 C majorC                 FF
Blue as the blue in that Southern sky
 C majorC        G+G    A minorAm
Kisses warm as a wild red rose
    C majorC              G+G     C majorC
At the bend in the river where the cottonwood grows


CHORUS:
     FF  G+G C majorC
And we`d dance
     FF  G+G C majorC
And we`d sing
     FF           G+G     A minorAm
And we`d love each other as the pale moon glows

    C majorC              G+G     A minorAm
At the bend in the rivеr where the cottonwood grows
    C majorC              G+G     C majorC
At thе bend in the river where the cottonwood grows

VERSE:
   C majorC         G+G    A minorAm
I can still recall the words you said
     C majorC           G+G    FF
And the plans we dreamed as we looked ahead
     C majorC             G+G    A minorAm
But the fork in the river took us separate ways
    C majorC                  FF
As the years went by, I can`t forget those days

    C majorC           G+G   A minorAm
And I often wonder but I`ll never know
    C majorC               FF
If we ended up followin` a different road
     C majorC           G+G    A minorAm
Would we still be layin` by the wild red rose?
    C majorC              G+G     C majorC
At the bend in the river where the cottonwood grows


CHORUS:
     FF  G+G C majorC
And we`d dance
     FF  G+G C majorC
And we`d sing
     FF           G+G     A minorAm
And we`d love each other as the pale moon glows

    C majorC              G+G     A minorAm
At the bend in the rivеr where the cottonwood grows
    C majorC              G+G     C majorC  C majorC C majorC C majorC
At thе bend in the river where the cottonwood grows


OUTRO:
    C majorC          G+G    A minorAm
I can close my eyes and it takes me back
  C majorC        G+G       FF
To two young lovers on that riverbank
