[B]Old Man [C#m]Moon across the[B] swampy river[A7] rise
[B]Cast a q[C#m]uiet reflection [B]in your[A7] eyes
[E]Meet me beside the s[B]till waters and Let me [A7]love you down on t[E]he river
[C#m]Hear the cric[B]kets singing for a mi[A7]le
And the [C#m]sound of the [B]bullfrog when he[A7] smiles
[E]Meet me beside the s[B]till waters and Let me [A7]love you down on t[E]he river
I[E]t's like [C#m]heaven w[B]hen I l[A7]ove yo[E]u [C#m]I'm so f[B]ar [A7]a - wa[E]y
And you [C#m]know all my [B7]favorite [A]songs to [E]sing
[D5] Know the [C#m]words to [B]say
[B] So come [C#m]follow me [B]down the quiet [A7]side
T[C#m]aste the old river d[B]eep and [A7]wide
A[E]nd lead me beside the still [B]waters and Let me love y[A7]ou down on the[E] river
[C#m]And the night bird c[B]alling[A7] and I'm fa[E]lling m[C#m]ore in [B]love e[A]ach d[E]ay
[C#m]Want you sit by my [B]side and h[A7]old to my h[E]and and [D5]love me [C#m]all the [B]way
[B]And we'll l[C#m]eave all the [B]highways far [A7]behind
[B]And just t[C#m]ake a little [B]blanket with the [A7]wine
A[E]nd lead me beside the still [B]waters and Let me love y[A7]ou down on the[E] river
A[E]nd lead me beside the still [B]waters and Let me love y[A7]ou down on the[E] river
Play D5 as a bar chord on the fifth fret with the D & G strings played on the 7th frets.
