Down By The River Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 DGo you remember, you took my haCnd,

 And we walked out across the fieDlds,

 Down the lane and over the railway liGne

 Our hearts were racing, our fe[C}et were chasing,

 We were looking for a hideaway, getDting lost and losing track of tiGme

 WGe went down by the river, we went doCwn by the river

 Where the waDter ran slow, that’s where we let our lovin’ run frGee.

 We went down by the river, we went doCwn by the river

 Just laDyin’ low, my true love and mGe

 YGou let your long brown hair hang doCwn

 You saw your dress was swayin’ in the breDeze

 We were skimmin’ stones out across the streGam

 You had a lazy style and a careCfree smile

 You were a breathless beauty to beDhold

 The sweetest sight my eyes had ever seGen

 WGe went down by the river, we went doCwn by the river

 Where the waDter ran slow, that’s where we let our lovin’ run frGee.

 We went down by the river, we went doCwn by the river

 Just laDyin’ low, my true love and mGe

 TGhe water’s risin’, the stream’s diviCding

 The river keeps rollin’ oDn

 PaGper boats and pleasures drift awCay

 And you may be just a meDmory

 But you’re shining like a distant stGar

 That seCems to me as cleDar as yesterGday

 WGe went down by the river, we went doCwn by the river

 Where the waDter ran slow, that’s where we let our lovin’ run frGee.

 We went down by the river, we went doCwn by the river

 Just laDyin’ low, my true love and mGe
