VERSE 1:
Em
Where the long river flows
CD/F#
It flows by my window
GEm
Where the tall timber grows
CD/F#
It grows 'round my door
GG7
Where the mountains meet the sky
CAm
And the white clouds fly
D/F#GD/F#
Where the long river flows, by my window
VERSE 2:
GEm
There's a tiny bird that calls
CD/F#
And it calls by my window
GEm
There's a lonely tear that falls
CD/F#
And it falls 'round my door
GG7
But when the sun is high
CAm
There's no time to cry
D/F#GD/F#
Where the long river flows, by my window
INTERLUDE (whistle):

VERSE 3:
GEm
Now if only you could see
CD/F#
The closing of the day
GEm
If only you could be
CD/F#
Where the dawn breaks away
GG7
By the white cascade
CAm
Oh, down in the glade
D/F#GD/F#
Where the long river flows, by my window
VERSE 4:
GEm
Well, when this land was made
CD/F#
It was made full of wonders
GEm
But one woman's love
CD/F#
I can't understand
GG7
And I'd give it all to you
CAm
If her love were true
