River Lady Roger Whittaker
The [A]day the river freezes
Is the [Bm]day it won't seem fair
'Cause they'll [D]come to get the River Lady
And [D]I don't think they'll [A]care
I [A]know they'll scrape her paint off
In their [Bm]same old foolish ways
Now the [D]people see the river
But the [D]old ships gone a[A]way
[A]Water turns [D]cold and gets ta freezin'
Before you even [A]know it, the old girl's easin'
Away from her [C#m]berth, round by the point
And out of our [D]view
Off in the [D]mist, her engine's poundin'
Like on the [A]banks, that old horn's soundin'
A little good[C#m]bye, a little I'll do what I must [D]do
A little good[C#m]bye, a little I'll [D]do what I must [A]do
I [A]know I will remember
When I [Bm]cannot hear that horn
That would [D]roll up by the mountains
As she [D]took us through the [A]storm
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/roger_whittaker/river_lady_crd.html )
I [A]know they've got to take her
But I [Bm]can't say I approve
'Cause she's [D]won so many battles
That I [D]hate to see her [A]lose
[A]Water turns [D]cold and gets ta freezin'
Before you even [A]know it, the old girl's easin'
Away from her [C#m]berth, round by the point
And out of our [D]view
A little good[C#m]bye, a little I'll do what I must [D]do
A little good[C#m]bye, a little I'll [D]do what I must [A]do
[A]Water turns [D]cold and gets ta freezin'
Before you even [A]know it, the old girl's easin'
Away from her [C#m]berth, round by the point
And out of our [D]view
Off in the [D]mist, her engine's poundin'
Like on the [A]banks, that old horn's soundin'
A little good[C#m]bye, a little I'll do what I must [D]do
A little good[C#m]bye, a little I'll [D]do what I must [A]do
