(C)Dear River (Emin)Thames
you keep (Amin)moving a(G)long,
Not (F)knowing where you're (C)going,
nor (F)where you've come (C)from.
You heads in the (Emin)valley your (Amin)feet
in the (G)sea.
(F)Dear River (C)Thames,
Stay a while,
Stay a (G)while,
Listen to (C)me.
Dear River Thames
distress floods my mind,
Through London's grey pastures so bleak and unkind.
Clear blue through meadows, darker through towns,
Dear River Thames
Stay by me,
Stay by me,
And don't let me down.
Dear River Thames
sail me down to the sea,
Where seagulls sing anthems and circle round free.
And there I shall rest where the waters descend,
Dear River Thames,
For the right,
I must confide,
That you are my friend.
(Digance/McTell).
