AmLights on the river bridge
Roll to the water's edge
Filling the harbor with ChaGlos
AmThe night was cold and black
When they were walking back
He held her hand in the CshaGdows
FMy  C  GfavoAmrite
FThere is so Gmuch more to Amsee
FWhCy Gstay beAmhind
FWhen you could Ggo on with Amme
AmIcicle centuries
Burst into gentle breeze
Somewhere a curse had been ClifGted
AmShe turned around in her
Chair and he touched her hair
And the universe CshifGted
FMy  C  GfavoAmrite
FThere is so Gmuch more to Amsee
FWhCy Gstay beAmhind
FWhen you could Ggo on with Amme
COhG--F--GOlivia
CWon't you Glet your Fheart come Ghome
COhG--F--GOlivia
           C            G       F     C  C(B)  Am  
Leave those wild young boys alone
AmOut on the stormy cliff
Silvery waters lift
High with a wild wind beChind Gthem
AmVaporous rippling
Like a drug or a dream
Eyes in the lamplight were CshiGning
FMy  C  GfavoAmrite
FThere is so Gmuch more to Amsee
FWhCy Gstay beAmhind
