I hate to see night shadows fall I hate to see a moon above
G7
For it brings me dreams of days gone by

When my darling Lola Lee strolled along the shore with me
G7

And we watched the golden river glide on by
F

G7
Golden river golden river you took my love from me
C
F
On your waves of golden hue you carried her with you
C
G7

And broke my heart a million million ways
F

Now I sit and wonder why I feel so blue and want to cry
G7
While I watch the moon climb slowly in the sky
C

It was on a night like this when she gave me her last kiss
G7
C
Climbed in her birch canoe and sailed away
F

Golden river golden river you took my love from me
C

On your waves of golden hue you carried her with you
C

And broke my heart a million million ways
