Across The River

Tom: C

C  Am  F  C

[Verse 1]
C                  Am
I saw you walking, I heard you cry
F                C
I saw you leave, I wonder why
C               Am
Were they all, cruel to you
F                  C
Break your heart, through and through
Am                 F
Put your head down in my arms
    G
And tell me what went wrong

[Verse 2]
C                  Am
Across the river, arcoss the bay
F                 C
People starving, every day
C             Am
Nearly naked, pale and worn
F                       C
With crowds of people, looking on
Am                    F
Hearts and pounding, heads are still
   G
As tears begin to fall, I'm dreaming

[Chorus]
C      Am      F              C
Baby, hold me, always let me know
C        Am        F            C
Darling, hold me, never let me go

[Solo]
C    Am    F    C  x2

[Verse 3]
C                  Am
I saw you walking, I heard you cry
F                C
I saw you leave, I wonder why
Am               F
All those ages, all these years
    G
As tears begin to fall, I'm dreaming

[Chorus]
C      Am      F              C
Baby, hold me, always let me know
C        Am        F            C
Darling, hold me, never let me go
