            F
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
She left me so downhearted there and I really cried
         A#
About mistakes I'd made and it's a crying shame
I can't believ the way they start all over again

             F
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
Without a word or a note, so I couldn't find
         A#
A reason for to stay where I wanted to stay
                                    C A#
There didn't seem to me to be anyway

I got away from the city from the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be

I got away from the city from the riverside
And it was all nitty gritty there, however I tried
I didn't wait to feel how I knew I would feel
I had to turn around, 'cos I wouldn't be found

Chorus:
            D# C              F
Don't blame me or point your finger at me
A#                  D#  C                  F
I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger
at me
A#              D#
Don't you do it, don't you do it to me
C                 F
Don't point your finger my way
C               F           D
Don't put the blame all my way

She found me so light-hearted by the riverside
She didn't cry or try and I didn't mind
'Cos I just had to stay wher I wanted to stay
And the mistakes I made, I made them anyway

She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be

Chorus

She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried
It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel
I turned around to be where I wanted to be
She left me cold and hungry by the riverside
Riverside, riverside

Riverside, riverside, riverside, riverside - x9
