River Lady chords and lyrics - ROGER WHITTAKER

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]The day the river freezes is the
[Am]day it won't seem fair
Cause they'll [C]come to get the river lady
And I don't think they'll [G]care

[Verse 2]
I [G]know they'll scrape her paint off
In their [Am]same old foolish ways

[Verse 3]
Now [C]the people see the river
But the old ship's gone [G]away
Water turns [C]cold and gets to freezing
Before you even know it the
[D]old girl's [G]easing
Away from [Bm]her berth round by
the point and out of our [C]view
Off in the mist her engines pounding
Back on [G]the banks that
old horn's sounding
A little good-bye
[Bm]A A little I'll do what I must do[C]
A little good-bye
[D]A A little I'll d[C]o what I must do

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][D][G]

[Verse 4]
I [G]know I will remember when I
[Am]can not hear that horn
That would [C]roll up by the mountains
As she took us through [G]the storm
I know they've got to take her
But I can[Am]'t say I approve
Cause she's [C]won so many battles
That I hate to see her [G]lose

[Verse 5]
Water turns [C]cold and gets to freezing
Before you even know it the
[D]old girl's eas[G]ing
Away from her [Bm]berth round by
the point and out of our [C]view
Off in the mist her engines pounding
Back on the [G]banks that old horn's sounding
A little good-bye
[Bm]A A little I'll do what I mu[C]st[D]
[C]do[G][C][Bm][G][C][G]
[Bm][C][G]
A little good-bye
