E
Down by the river
B7
The water’s cold
E         E7                 A      Am
Used to have a girl but that’s alright
E           C#m           C
She came to me in a dream
            B                    E     Am E B7
And slipped away like a running stream
E
The hours of silence
B7
In the light of the moon
E         E7         A   Am
Brings to me a sense of ease
E               C#m                C
There’s nothing else that I could do
         B              E      Am E B  C
For that woman won't be pleased
C#m
I see her running
G#m
But I’m not the same
A
I’ve chased after pleasure
           E   E7
To bury my pain
C#m
But it’s resurrected
G#m
When I say her name
A                                 B
My love and regret are one in the same
E
The scream of a raven
B7
The screech of an owl
E               E7            A  Am
A heartbroke and lonesome coyote howl
E                  C#m                     C
Those old Hartford records that we used to play
        B                     E   Am   E  B7
And the silence when she went away
E       B7
A flower illustrated in bloom
E
Floating on a wisp of consciousness
E7                  A
She rides innocently down the river to
Am
The place where the light lives
E                                    C#m
And shrugs off enchantment with a sigh
                 C
Dreaming from the first moment of her life
B                     E
Unheard songs bathed in silver ring out as
 B7                    E
Morning rolls into the endless
C#m
I see her running
G#m
But I’m not the same
A
I’ve chased after pleasure
E
To bury my pain
C#m
But it’s resurrected
G#m
When I say her name
A                                  B
My love and regret are one in the same
E
I keep wandering back
B7
To a place in my mind
E                E7                    A   Am
Where moonlight reflections return to her eyes
E              C#m            C
To gaze at the water once more
        B                    E Am E B7
Before turning again to the sky
E
Down by the river
B7
The water’s cold
E        E7                  A     Am
Used to have a girl but that’s alright
E           C#m           C
She came to me in a dream
            B                   E     Am E Am E
And slipped away like a running stream
