[E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
I was born in the path [A] of the winter, [E] _ _
_ raised [A] where the mountains [E] are [B] old. _
[E] There _ springtime waters [A] came _ [E] dancing down, I remember [B] the tales [E] they told. _ _
The _ whistling waves [A] of my younger [E] _ days, too quickly [F#m] have faded [B] on _ by. _
[E] But all the memories [A] _ linger [E] on, like the light [B] of a [E] fading _ _ _ sky.
_ _ _ River, _
[A] _ take [B] me along in [E] your _ _ sunshine, _
[A] sing [B] me a song [A] ever _ _ moody and [B] winding [E] and free. _
[A] You rolling [E] old river, [F#m] you changing [E] old river, lends [A] you and [G#m] me, River, [E] a bow to [A] the sea. _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ Well I've been to the city, [A] now I've been back [E] again, and I've been moved [F#m] by some things that [B] I have learned.
_ [A] Met a [E] lot of good people and [A] I've called [E] them friends, felt a change [B] when the [E] seasons turned. _
_ _ _ Heard all the [A] songs that the children _
[E] sing, and I've listened [F#m]
to those [B] _ melodies. _
_ _ [E] Felt my own music [A] bring [E] me life, like the wind in [B] the [E] autumn _ _ trees. _ _ _ _
River, _ [A] _ take me [B] along in [E] your _ _ sunshine, _ [A] sing me [B] a song ever [A] _ _ _
moody [B] and winding [E]
and free.
[A] You rolling [E] old river, [F#m] you changing [E] old river, [A] lends you and [B] me, River, a bow to [A] the sea. _ _ _

_ _ _ Someday when the flowers [A] are blooming [E] still, _ someday [A] when the grass is [E] still green,
[B] _ _ [E] my _ rolling waters [A] will run [E] the bend and flow into [B] the [E] open sea.
_ _ Now _ here's to the rainbow [A] that's followed [E] me here, and here's to the friends [B] that I _ know,
_ [E] and here's to the song that's [A] within [E] me now, I will sing [B] wherever [E] I _ _ go. _ _ _ _
_ River, _ [A] take [B] me along [E] in your _ _ sunshine, _ [A] _ sing me [E] a song ever [A] _ _
_ moody [E] and winding and free.
