Roger Whittaker – River Lady chords

    AThe day the river freezes
       BmIs the day it won't seem fair
               D'Cause they'll come to get the River Lady
    D                     AAnd I don't think they'll care

  AI know they'll scrape her paint off
         BmIn their same old foolish ways
        DNow the people see the river
        D               ABut the old ships gone away

A           DWater turns cold and gets ta freezin'
                ABefore you even know it, the old girl's easin'
              C#mAway from her berth, round by the point
               DAnd out of our view

           DOff in the mist, her engine's poundin'
            ALike on the banks, that old horn's soundin'
             C#m                               DA little goodbye, a little I'll do what I must do
             C#m                D              AA little goodbye, a little I'll do what I must do

  AI know I will remember
       BmWhen I cannot hear that horn
           DThat would roll up by the mountains
       D                   AAs she took us through the storm

  AI know they've got to take her
      BmBut I can't say I approve
             D'Cause she's won so many battles
       D               AThat I hate to see her lose

A           DWater turns cold and gets ta freezin'
                ABefore you even know it, the old girl's easin'
              C#mAway from her berth, round by the point
               DAnd out of our view
             C#m                               DA little goodbye, a little I'll do what I must do
             C#m                D              AA little goodbye, a little I'll do what I must do


A           DWater turns cold and gets ta freezin'
                ABefore you even know it, the old girl's easin'
              C#mAway from her berth, round by the point
               DAnd out of our view

           DOff in the mist, her engine's poundin'
            ALike on the banks, that old horn's soundin'
             C#m                               DA little goodbye, a little I'll do what I must do
             C#m                D              AA little goodbye, a little I'll do what I must do
