FThey made love by the river
CAnd they held o tight
Dm7To those Fmemory making Cnights
[Verse]
CIt happened in the winter after the cafe closed
FGinger had a Gchange of heart
FShe'd fallen out of Glove with Joe
CTired of the cafe Life didn't seem right
FShe was getting out of that Gno where town 
FShe planned on leaving GJoe that night
[Chorus]
FThey drove down to the river
CHe looked her dead in the eyes
Dm7He could Ffeel her trembling Chands
FShe told him there by the river

Dm7He could Ffeel her trembling Chands
FAnd she lay still in the river
CJoeeee Cried
Dm7Another Fmemory making Cnight 
CJoeeee Cried
