[Verse 1]
G
Do you remember, you took my hand,
Am
And we walked out across the fields,
D G
Down the lane and over the railway line
G
Our hearts were racing, our feet were chasing,
Am G
We were looking for a hideaway, getting lost and losing track of time
[Chorus]
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Where the water ran slow, swear our lovin' ran free.
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Just layin' low, my true love and me
[Verse 2]
G
You let your long brown hair hang down
Am
You saw your dress was swayin' in the breeze
D G
We were skimmin' stones out across the stream
G
You had a lazy style and a care free smile
Am
You were a breathless beauty to behold
D G
The sweetest sight, my eyes had ever seen
[Chorus]
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Where the water ran slow, swear our lovin' ran free.
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Just layin' low, my true love and me
[Instrumental]
G Am D G Am D G
[Verse 3]
G
Well water's risin', the stream's dividing
Am
The river keeps rollin' on,
D G
Paper boats and pleasures drift away
G
And you may be just a memory
Am
But you're shining like a distant star
D G
Seems to me as clear as yesterday
[Chorus]
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G
Where the water ran slow, swear our lovin' ran free.
G Am
We went down by the river, we went down by the river
D G D G
Just layin' low, my true love and me
