Verse 1
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major) I met a fair maiden
so sweet (C major) and so (G major) fair
Where the white flowers
bloomed on the (D major) shore
And (G major) one of these flowers
was (C major) fixed in her (G major) hair
I can still see that (D major) flower she (G major) wore
The girl by the river, she (C major) meets me no (G major) more
No more do the white flowers (D major) blow
Perhaps (G major) she will meet me
on (C major) some distant shore
(G major) She's gone where the (D major) white
flowers (G major) go (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
We made a nice couple,
we (C major) talked and we (G major) sang,
So sweet was her laughter to hear. (D major)
But the (G major) beautiful flower,
so (C major) white without (G major) name,
Grew closer and (D major) to her more (G major) dear.
The girl by the river,
she meet (C major) s me no (G major) more
No more do the white flowers (D major) blow
Per (G major) haps she will meet me
on (C major) some distant shore
(G major) She's gone where the (D major) white flowers
(G major) go (C major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
Through spring and through summer
we (C major) capered around
(G major) Through the beautiful white flowers (D major) there
In (G major) autumn they faded and
(C major) could not be (G major) found
And my darling she showed (D major) a strange (G major) fear
The girl by the river she
meet (C major) s me no (G major) more
No more do the white flowers (D major) blow
Perhaps (G major) she will meet me
on (C major) some distant shore
(G major) She's gone where the (D major) white
flowers (G major) go (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
We'd made our plans for a (C major) wedding to (G major) be
She told me that she would be (D major) mine
One (G major) day she vanished
and (C major) now I can't (G major) find
My darling, my (D major) sweetheart divine (G major)
The girl by the river, she means (C major) me no (G major) more
No more do the wildflowers (D major) glow
Perhaps (G major) she will meet me
on (C major) some distant shore
(G major) She's gone where the (D major) wildflowers (G major) go
You
