[B] I was standing by the [A] Nile,

[C#] her golden hair was [B] flowing wild.
[C#] Then she spread her wings to [B] fly [A#] for a tune.
[D#] Soaring high upon the [C#] breezes,
[D#] going always [C#] where she pleases.
[D#] She will make it to the [C#] island [C] in the sand.
[F] I will follow in her [D#] shadow,
[F] and I will watch her from my [D#] window.
