Standard tuning EADGBe
(no guitar) Em - Em7 A - A7
My love is like a river,
D - Dsus2
She just keeps on rolling along
Em - Em7 A - A7
No man ever can keep that girl from moving on
D - Dsus2
Easy as she comes by, easy as she's gone
Get down, real down, crying how I love that girl,
She's as free as heaven on a breeze
Lay my burden down, down by the river's edge,
There I learned to let my lover be

[organ solo + vocal background]
And don't you know I'd hold you (hold you, oh yeah)
If I could find a way, (oh yeah, oh yeah)
If I could only catch you, (oooh, catch you, oh yeah)
If you would only stay. (stay, stay)
And don't you know I want you, (want you, want you)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, stay (stay, yeah)
If I could only love you, (love me)
But girl you keep on running away, running away, running away
Oooh no (yeah)

My love is like a river
