Verse 1
G 
On the bank of the river
C 
Stood runnin' bare
G 
Young Indian brave
On the other side of the river
A 
D 
Stood his lovely Indian maid
G 
Little white dove
Oh, was her name
C 
Such a lovely sight to see
G 
But their tribes fought with each other
F# 
D 
So their love could never
G 
C 
be runnin' fair
G 
Love little white dove
D 
G 
with a love big as the sky
C 
G 
Runnin' fair, love little white dove
D 
G 
With a love that couldn't die
He couldn't swim the ragin' river,
C 
G 
cause the river was too wide
He couldn't reach the
little white dove
A 
D 
waitin' on the other side
G 
In the moonlight he could see her
C 
throwin' kisses across the way
G 
Her little heart was beatin' faster,
D 
G 
C 
waitin' there for a brave runnin' bear.
G 
Love little white dove,
D 
G 
with a love as big as the sky,
C 
runnin' bear.
G 
Love little white dove,
D 
G 
with a love that couldn't die,
runnin' bear.
C 
Dove in the water, little white dove,
did the same,
G 
and they swam out to each other,
A 
D 
through the swirling stream they came.
G 
As their hands touched and their lips met,
C 
G 
the raging river pulled them down.
Now they'll always be together
D 
in that happy hunting ground.
G 
C 
G 
Runnin' bare, loved a little white dove
D 
G 
With a love as big as the sky
C 
G 
Runnin' bare, loved a little white dove
D 
G 
With a love that couldn't die
