One day soon I'm going to cross that river.. 
     G#                        D#7 
if I have to swim to the other side. 
          G#                 C# 
Yeah, the last time I saw my baby, I just 
G#     D#7              G# 
had to hang my head and cry. 

#2. 
G#                              C# 
Now, her folks don't want us to marry, cause 
     G#                  D#7 
they think that we're to young. 
       G#                    C# 
I just know I could make her happy, and we 
G#    D#7           G# 
could have a lot of fun. 

#3. 
G#                                 C# 
Now, they got me walking around in circles. 
        G#                  D#7 
I can't even get her on the phone. 
       G#                    C# 
I just wish they will let me see her, and 
G#        D#7         G# 
leave our love affair alone.
