Where The Cottonwood Grows

(início)

INTRO:

VERSE:
       C                    G        Am
I can close my eyes and it takes me back
    C                               F
To two young lovers on that riverbank
        C                          G        Am
To the sounds of the wind and the whip-poor-will
         C                             F
And the way that your bare skin would feel
       C                       G        Am
As we laid in the sun I could see your eyes
 C                                 F
Blue as the blue in that Southern sky
 C                G        Am
Kisses warm as a wild red rose
        C                           G          C
At the bend in the river where the cottonwood grows
CHORUS:
          F   G C
And we'd dance
          F   G C
And we'd sing
          F                      G         Am
And we'd love each other as the pale moon glows
        C                           G          Am
At the bend in the rivеr where the cottonwood grows
        C                           G          C
At thе bend in the river where the cottonwood grows
INSTRUMENTAL:

VERSE:
      C                 G        Am
I can still recall the words you said
         C                      G        F
And the plans we dreamed as we looked ahead
         C                         G        Am
But the fork in the river took us separate ways
        C                                   F
As the years went by, I can't forget those days
       C                     G     Am
And I often wonder but I'll never know
       C                              F
If we ended up followin' a different road
          C                      G        Am
Would we still be layin' by the wild red rose?
        C                           G          C
At the bend in the river where the cottonwood grows
CHORUS:
          F   G C
And we'd dance
          F   G C
And we'd sing
          F                      G         Am
And we'd love each other as the pale moon glows
        C                           G          Am
At the bend in the rivеr where the cottonwood grows
        C                           G          C   C  C  C
At thе bend in the river where the cottonwood grows
OUTRO:
       C                    G        Am
I can close my eyes and it takes me back
    C               G             F
To two young lovers on that riverbank
