intro : Am C G D x 2

Am
lost my watch , watch and chain ,
C
but time’s not lost
G
this time we walk together
D
beside the slow black river

Am
water – walking over mud
C
you whisper something
G
something good in my ear ,
D
so i stop so i can hear :

Am
“darling , i’m the one to blame
C
i threw your watch and chain
G
to where i don’t know
D
inside the tall grass meadow

Am
you’ll forget , forget in time
C
remember this :
G
your hand in mine forever
D
beside the slow black river”

Am
lost my watch , watch and chain
C
to her today
G
but time it has no meaning
D
when her and me are walking

Am
darling , i’m the one to blame
C
i love you still
G
and timeless now forever
D
together by the river
