INTRO
G Am C G x2
D Am C G Bm C G C G
G Am
I buried him down by the river
C G
'Cause thats where he liked to be.
G Am
And every night when the moon is high
C G
I go there and weep openly.
D Am
He and I were married
C G
By this river 'neath this willow tree
Bm C
And with God and friends witnessing it
G C G
He pledged his life to me
G Am C G
To me he was earth, I rooted in his soil.
G Am
I to he was sky vast and free
C G
Of the burdens from which he toiled.
D Am
Then one night a terrible fight
C G
Words spoken better left unsaid.
Bm C
With his wedding vows ringing in my ears
G C G
He gave his life to me.
BREAK
G Am C G x2
D Am C G Bm C G C G
G Am
They say to love is to bury
C G
Those demons from which we all hide,
D Am
But tonight by this river 'neath this willow tree
Bm C G
Becoming one of earth and sky.
