Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Lost River guitar chord

(C) There's a Lost River that flows

(C7) In a (F) valley where no one (C) goes

Where the (G7) wild water's (F) rush

Rumbles (G7) deep in the (C) hush

Gone far from there (C7) now

Lord, (F) I'll get back some-(C) how

To where the (G7) Lost River (F) winds

In the (G7) shadow of the (C) pines

Chorus 1:

(C) Oh, Lost River, (C7) now (F) I'm coming (C) back

To the (G7) pot-belly (F) stove

Where the (G7) firewood's all (C) stacked

Oh Quebec girl, go with (C7) me

Oh my (F) belle, my fleur-de(C) -lis

Where the (G7) Lost River (F) winds

In the (G7) shadow of the (C) pines

Now everybody knows

Where that Lost River flows

It's someplace he's lost

Behind bridges that he's crossed

Well, he'd like to return

But his bridges are all burned

And he's much too far down

To return to higher ground

Chorus 2:

Oh Lost River, far over the ridge

Now is it too late

For me to build me a new bridge

To the bright golden time

When her love was still mine

And the world was still wild

Like the heart of a child

Repeat Chorus 1
