stood (A minor) his (D major) lovely Indian (G major) maid
Little (C major) White Dove was her name,

so their (G major) love could never be. (C major)

Verse 3
He couldn't swim (C major) the raging river
'cause the (F major) river was too (C major) wide
He couldn't reach the Little White
Dove (A minor) waiting (D major) there on the other side (G major)
In the (C major) moonlight he could see her
(A minor) throwing (F major) kisses 'cross the (C major) waves
Her little heart was beating faster (A minor)
waiting (G major) for her Indian brave. (C major)
Verse 4
Running (F major) Bear loved Little (C major) White Dove

Verse 5
Running (C major) Bear dove in the water,
(A minor) Little (F major) White Dove did the same (C major)
And they swam out to each other through
the (D major) swirling stream they (G major) came
As their (C major) hands touched and their lips met,
the (A minor) raging (F major) river pulled them (C major) down
Now they'll always (A minor) be to (C major) gether (A minor) in
their (G major) happy hunting ground. (C major)

Running (F major) Bear loved Little (C major) White Dove
(G major) With a love big as the sky (C major) (A minor)

With a (G major) love that couldn't (C major) die (A minor)
