[Intro]

[Chorus]
G D/F# G
Where the Murray meets the Darling lies a sleepy border town,
D G
The grapevines were in season laden to the ground.
Em Bm
On the gate a rusty sign: 'Pickers apply within',
C G D G
[Verse]
G D G
All through the harvest season in the long hot afternoons,
D G
They gathered grapes together their love began to bloom.
Em Bm
And somehow he had touched her and like the clinging of the vines,
C G D G
Their lives became entangled their hearts became entwined.
[Chorus]
C G
Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow and brown,
C G D
In a secret valley he laid a blanket down.
C G Em
It was there beside the river he pledged his love that day,
G D G C D G
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away.
[Verse]
G D G
When the harvest time was over and the leaves began to fall,
D G
They planned to travel northward it was time for moving on.
Em Bm
But as the leaves were falling one night he slipped away,
C G D G
Her love had been forsaken the vines lay stark and grey.
[Chorus]
C G
Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow and brown,
C G D
In a secret valley he laid a blanket down.
C G Em
It was there beside the river he pledged his love that day,
G D G
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away.
D G C D G C D G
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away.
