[Bb]
On the bank of the river [Eb] stood running bear, [Bb] young Indian brave.
On the other side of the river [C] stood his lovely [F] Indian maid,
[Bb] Little White Dove was her name.
[Eb] Such a lovely [Bb] sight to see, but their tribes fought with each other,
[Ab] So their [F] love could [Bb] never be.
[Eb]
Running bear [Bb] loved Little White Dove with a [F] love [Bb] big as the sky.
[Eb] Running bear loved [Bb] Little White Dove with a [Cm] love that could [Bb] fly.
He couldn't swim the raging river, cause [Eb] the river was [Bb] too wide, he couldn't reach.
Little White Dove [C] waiting on [F] the other side [Ebm] in [Bb] the moonlight.
He could see her [Eb] throwing kisses across the [Bb] way.
Her little heart was beating faster, [Fm] waiting there for her brave.
[Eb]
Running bear [Bb] loved Little White Dove with a [A] [D] love [F] [Bb] big as the sky.
[Eb] Running bear [Bb] loved Little White Dove with a [F] love [Bb] that couldn't die.
Running bear dove in the water, [Eb] Little White Dove [Bb] did the same.
And they swam out to each other [D] through the [C] swirling [Fm] stream they came.
As their [Bb] hand touched and their lips met, the [Eb] raging river pulled them [Bb] down.
Now they'll always be together [Dbm] in that [F] happy [Ab] hunting [Bb] ground.
[Eb] Running bear loved [Bb] Little White Dove with [F] a love big as [Bb] the sky.
[Eb] Running bear loved [Bb] Little White Dove with a [F] love that [Bb] couldn't die.
