[Intro]
G  D G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
We parted by the riverside
    D                           G
The moon looked down on you and me
    G
The stars put on a look of pride
    D                     G
The river murmured to the sea
 
 
[Verse 2]
    C                          G
The dew drop kissed a blushing rose
                      D
The mournful wind did sigh
    G
One word broke nature’s sweet repose
     D                G
That sad word was goodbye
 
 
[Chorus]
   G
Oh tell me that you love me yet
    D                        G
For oh this parting gives me pain
       G
Please tell me that you’ll not forget
    D                  G
For we may never meet again

[Verse 3]
G
We parted by the riverside
       D                        G
Though I have roamed in distant climes
   G
My heart has not forgot it’s pride
    D                        G
For I have loved you all the time
 
 
[Verse 4]
    C                    G
And I am faithful to you still
                   D
As long as you are true
    G
Let day each bring to me what it will
      D             G
For I love you only you
 
 
[Chorus]
   G
Oh tell me that you love me yet
    D                        G
For oh this parting gives me pain
       G
Please tell me that you’ll not forget
    D                  G
For we may never meet again
