[C]
[G] [F]
Well, [C] I've not been honest, [F] darling.
[G] No, I've not been straight at [Am] all.
[C] Well, I beg your [F] pardon, the [G] night we jumped [F] McCormack's wall.
I was [C] so happy just to be with you, I'd have [G] said anything at [Am] all.
[C] And I could scream your name, [F] try and pass the blame, [Em] but I know you [F] won't respond.
[G] Well, here we are.
[F] What's there to do?
La [C]-da-da-da, [G] la-da [C]-da-da, [C]
la-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da
down [G] on a right black [F] river.
And with [C] the lack in [F] the morning and the [G] dew upon the [Am] dawn,
while [C] our home we came [F] crawling with [G] your sickness and your song.
[C] For all guitar makers, [G] for the prisoners and [Am] the law,
and [C] to the fine [F] wine drinkers [C] who [G] drank their bellies raw.
[C] And to all the good Samaritans who [G] ever found us in the [Am] dark,
and [C] to all who've been [F] or come between, [C]
the [G] lovers [F] in the park.
And [C] to all the Odimchi [F] singers with their [Em] roots in holy [Am] ground
[C] and forgiveness, [G] the [Em] bells above [F] the town.
Well, there it is.
What can you do?
La [C] dee da, la dee [C] da, la dee [Am] da, [C] la [F] dee da.
[G] I'm on a right black river.
[F] La [C] dee da, la dee da, la dee da, [Am] la [C] dee da.
[F] [G] I'm on a right black river.
[F]
[D] Well, this [C] is a song of [F] drinking.
For a drink, it [A] will be sung.
[C]
And I'll sing it right.
[F] And I'll say good night.
[C]
[G] Unless they're serving [Em] another [F]
one.
