[Verse 1]
A E
My love is a river where the white waters pour
A
I've hunted and trapped her through the Gates of Ladore
E
She sings through a curtain of cold mountain rain
A
Where I dug her bright silver in the high Coeur d'Alene
[Chorus]
A E
She'll never be mine
A
She'll never be mine
D
I've won all her treasures so simple and fine
E A
I guess she'll never be mine
[Verse 2]
A E
My love's a cantina where I drink with my friends;
A
I've called her Dolores or sometimes Cheyenne;
E
I followed her begging all over the West;
A
My love is a headlight on the midnight express
[Chorus]
A E
She'll never be mine
A
She'll never be mine
D
I've won all her treasures so simple and fine
E A
I guess she'll never be mine
[Verse 3]
A E
My love is a forest of high Douglas fir
A
Many long summers I've laboured for her
E
My love is the wind rows of dry autumn corn
A
That grew on the land where my children were born
[Chorus]
A E
She'll never be mine
A
She'll never be mine
D
I've won all her treasures so simple and fine
E A
I guess she'll never be mine
[Verse 4]
A E
My love is the life that a boomer will lead
A
You bought her with lies and you chained her with greed
E
My love is a dreamer, I'll follow the dream
A
You say she's a beggar, I say she's a queen
[Chorus]
A E
Some day she'll be mine
A
Some day she'll be mine
D
I've won all her treasures so simple and fine
E A
I know some day she'll be mine
