      A
Blue river
                         D7
It can't be found on any map that I know
                                 A
But it's the place where lonely lovers all go
              E
To cry their tears

      A
Blue river
                          D7
It winds along a path of heartache and pain
                              A
Of broken dreams from lovin' someone in vain
              E
Like I loved you,
                  A
And baby I still do


Chorus:
D
 I held you so tight
A
 You were out of my sight
D
 I'm feelin' so low
B7             E
  But I gotta go

Blue river
Because you never really cared about me
From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be
Cryin' over you
By the river of blue

Chorus

Blue river
Because you never really cared about me
From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be
Cryin' over you
By the river of blue
