Carter Family - The Winding Stream Chords

[Intro]
G D G
G C G D G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
Oh give to me a winding stream
                   D7
It must not be too wide
D7
Where waving leaves from maple trees
                    G
Do meet from either side
G
The water must be deep enough
                   C
To float a small canoe
     D7              G
With no one else but you
 
 
[Chorus]
G                        D7
Do not disturb my waking dream
D7
The splendor of
             G
That winding stream
G
Flower in my canoe
                        C
Her eyes they looked me through
C
A maiden fair with golden hair
   D7             G
Is very much like you

[Verse 2]
G
The sparkling trout beneath the bank
                      D7
Does leave his hiding place
D7
King fisher from the bow above
                 G
So eager to give chase
G
The spreading branches
                             C
Overhead the sunrise peeking through
     D7              G
When looking dear at you
 
 
[Outro]
G                        D7
Do not disturb my waking dream
D7
The splendor of
             G
That winding stream
G
Flower in my canoe
                        C
Her eyes they looked me through
C
A maiden fair with golden hair
   D7             G
Is very much like you
