Down by the River

G C Do you remember, you took my hand, D And we walked out across the fields, G Down the lane and over the railway line Our hearts were racing, our fe[C}et were chasing, D G We were looking for a hideaway, getting lost and losing track of time G C We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Where the water ran slow, thats where we let our lovin run free. C We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Just layin low, my true love and me Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jon_allen/down_by_the_river_crd.html G C You let your long brown hair hang down D You saw your dress was swayin in the breeze G We were skimmin stones out across the stream C You had a lazy style and a carefree smile D You were a breathless beauty to behold G The sweetest sight my eyes had ever seen G C We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Where the water ran slow, thats where we let our lovin run free. C We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Just layin low, my true love and me G C The waters risin, the streams dividing D The river keeps rollin on G C Paper boats and pleasures drift away D And you may be just a memory G But youre shining like a distant star C D G That seems to me as clear as yesterday G C We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Where the water ran slow, thats where we let our lovin run free. C We went down by the river, we went down by the river D G Just layin low, my true love and me
