River of Light Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 4th Fret
[INTRO:] D A7 D G/D-D Dsus2-D
[VERSE 1:]
Heading off on a river at peace, in the cool of an evening[G]
Heading off on a river of light, be part of a river at night[D]
Nice to be on a river sometimes, like a June bug travelling[G]
Heading off on a ribbon of song, been away from the river too long[D]
Good to be on a river somewhere, like a milkweed travelling[G]
~ Em
Heading off on a ribbon of dreams
Be a part of a river it seems [D]
[CBORUS:]
Can you tell me how lo[A7]ng must I tra[D]vel on
I [G]won't be looking up old friends
I [A7]won't be looking up old friends ever a[G/D]gain[A7] [F] [G/D-D]
[VERSE 2:]
I spent my life taking my time and I can't change anything[G]
Take a look at my river of light, be a part of a river at night[D]
Nice to be on a river at peace, like a June bug travelling[G]
Heading off on a river at last, my tears will be all in the past[D]
Good to be on a river somewhere, like a milkweed travelling[G]
~ Em
Heading down where the water runs deep
Down deep where the fish are asleep now[D]
[CBORUS:]
Can you tell me how lo[A7]ng must I tra[D]vel on
I [G]won't be looking up old friends
I [A7]won't be looking up old friends ever a[G/D]gain[A7] [F] [G/D-D]
[VERSE 3:]
Trouble don't mean nothing to me and I had my share of it[G]
Heading off on a river of light, be a part of a river at night[D]
Nice to be on a river at peace in the cool of an evening[G]
Heading off on a silver moonlight, maybe love'll find me tonight[D]
Good to be on a river somewhere, like a milkweed travelling[G]
~ Em
Heading off on a ribbon of dreams
Be a part of a river it seems[D]
[CBORUS:]
Can you tell me how lo[A7]ng must I tra[D]vel on[G-D]
I [G]won't be looking up old friends
I [A7]won't be looking up old friends ever a[G/D]gain[A7]
Ever a[G/D]gain[A7]
Ever a[G/D]gain [A7]
