Long River Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] G C G C G D/F# G C G
[VERSE 1:]
Where the long river [Em]flows
It [C]flows by my [D/F#]window
Where the [G]tall timber [Em]grows
It [C]grows 'round my [D/F#]door
Where the [G]mountains meet the [G7]sky
And the [C]white clouds [Am]fly
Where the [D/F#]long river flows, by my [G]window[C] [G] [D/F#]
[VERSE 2:]
There's a [G]tiny bird that [Em]calls
And it [C]calls by my [D/F#]window
There's a [G]lonely tear that [Em]falls
And it [C]falls 'round my [D/F#]door
But [G]when the sun is [G7]high
There's [C]no time to [Am]cry
Where the [D/F#]long river flows, by my [G]window[C] [G] [D/F#]
[INTERLUDE (wbistle):] G Em C D/F# G Em C D/F#
[VERSE 3:]
Now if [G]only you could [Em]see
The [C]closing of the [D/F#]day
If [G]only you could [Em]be
Where the [C]dawn breaks a[D/F#]way
By the [G]white cas[G7]cade
Oh, [C]down in the [Am]glade
Where the [D/F#]long river flows, by my [G]window[C] [G] [D/F#]
[VERSE 4:]
Well, when [G]this land was [Em]made
It was [C]made full of [D/F#]wonders
But [G]one woman's [Em]love
I [C]can't under[D/F#]stand
And I'd [G]give it all to [G7]you
If [C]her love were [Am]true
Where the [D/F#]long river flows, by my [G]window [C] [G]
Where the [D/F#]long river flows____, by my [G]window [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]
