Tonight I wandered down the lane 
          F                  C 
I saw the tree we carved our names 
                                G 
Honey long long ago don't you recall 
             C 
I thought of all the plans we made 
      F               C   
As we sat down in the shade  
            C              G               C 
'Neath this tree where the rippling waters fall 


[Refrão]

              F                                C 
The hearts we carved on this tree will last forever 
        D                               G 
But the love you promised me I'll never know 
             C                         F 
Your love is gone and I'm alone by the river 
            C              G               C 
'Neath this tree where the rippling waters fall

                  C 
Oh, you said that you'd always be mine 
              F               C 
You said your love is not the kind 
                                        G 
That would die when the leaves begin to fall 
           C                                    F        C 
But as the leaves come tumbling down I see your love not around 
                         G               C 
Just this tree where the rippling waters fall

             C                         F 
Your love is gone and I'm alone by the river
