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
