Roger Whittaker - River lady

The ^Aday the river freezes Is the ^Bmday it won't seem fair 'Cause they'll ^Dcome to get the River Lady And ^DI don't think they'll ^Acare

I ^Aknow they'll scrape her paint off In their ^Bmsame old foolish ways Now the ^Dpeople see the river But the ^Dold ships gone a^Away

^AWater turns ^Dcold and gets ta freezin' Before you even ^Aknow it, the old girl's easin' Away from her ^C#mberth, round by the point And out of our ^Dview

Off in the ^Dmist, her engine's poundin' Like on the ^Abanks, that old horn's soundin' A little good^C#mbye, a little I'll do what I must ^Ddo A little good^C#mbye, a little I'll ^Ddo what I must ^Ado

I ^Aknow I will remember When I ^Bmcannot hear that horn That would ^Droll up by the mountains As she ^Dtook us through the ^Astorm

I ^Aknow they've got to take her But I ^Bmcan't say I approve 'Cause she's ^Dwon so many battles That I ^Dhate to see her ^Alose

^AWater turns ^Dcold and gets ta freezin' Before you even ^Aknow it, the old girl's easin' Away from her ^C#mberth, round by the point And out of our ^Dview A little good^C#mbye, a little I'll do what I must ^Ddo A little good^C#mbye, a little I'll ^Ddo what I must ^Ado

^AWater turns ^Dcold and gets ta freezin' Before you even ^Aknow it, the old girl's easin' Away from her ^C#mberth, round by the point And out of our ^Dview

Off in the ^Dmist, her engine's poundin' Like on the ^Abanks, that old horn's soundin' A little good^C#mbye, a little I'll do what I must ^Ddo A little good^C#mbye, a little I'll ^Ddo what I must ^Ado
