Gordon Lightfoot – Long River (Guitar)

                     Em
Where the long river flows 

   C           D/F#
It flows by my window 

          G           Em
Where the tall timber grows 

   C               D/F#
It grows 'round my door 

          G                  G7
Where the mountains meet the sky 

        C            Am
And the white clouds fly 

          D/F#                    G       C  G  D/F#
Where the long river flows, by my window

          G              Em
There's a tiny bird that calls

       C           D/F#
And it calls by my window 

          G                Em
There's a lonely tear that falls 

       C               D/F#
And it falls 'round my door 

    G               G7
But when the sun is high 

        C          Am
There's no time to cry 

          D/F#                    G       C  G  D/F#
Where the long river flows, by my window

       G              Em
Now if only you could see 

    C              D/F#
The closing of the day 

   G              Em
If only you could be 

          C            D/F#
Where the dawn breaks away 

       G        G7
By the white cascade

    C           Am
Oh, down in the glade 

          D/F#                    G       C  G  D/F#
Where the long river flows, by my window

           G             Em
Well, when this land was made 

       C            D/F#
It was made full of wonders

    G           Em
But one woman's love 

  C          D/F#
I can't understand 

        G              G7
And I'd give it all to you

   C             Am
If her love were true 

          D/F#                    G       C  G
Where the long river flows, by my window 

          D/F#                        G       C  G  C  G  C  G C G
Where the long river flows____, by my window
