Bm C

    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
The tears of a woman are hidden within
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
As she moves from one to the next, her spirit grows thin
    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
And when she falls in love with one, it's hard but it's true
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
But it's oh so much harder when that man is you
    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
I got lost on the river, but I got found
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
I got lost on the river, but I didn't drown

    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
One stormy day I was out at sea
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
The waves they rolled and tumbled over me
    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
I spied dry land and a tall pale tree
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
I knew that soon that's where I'd like to be

    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
My sweetheart left me for another one
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
And now I wait for the next rising sun

    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
I got lost on the river, but I got found
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
I got lost on the river, but I didn't drown
    Em    D    C         Em  D   C   Bm
I got lost on the river, but I didn't go down
       Em          D          C         Bm           C
I got lost on the river, but I got found
