Intro

Golden, golden, golden river run

To the East then drop beneath the sun

And as the moon lies low and overhead

We're lost...

Bridge

Splitting at the Cseams

Heaving at the Gbrace

Sheets all billoDwing

The breaking of the Am7day

Such a foolish Dthing

Such an honest Am7girl

Once I had a Cdream, it died lonGg before

Now I'm pointed Dnorth, hoping Amfor the shore
