Yellow river

   C                               Em
1. So long boy, you can take my place,
    Am                         Em
    got my papers, I've got my pay,
         Am                                 Dm                    G
    so pack my bags and I'll be on my way, to Yellow River.
 
     C                                Em
2. Put my gun down, the war is won,
   Am                             Em
    fill my glass now, the time has come,
          Am                       Dm                G
    I'm going back to the place I love, Yellow River.
 
  C                                         Em                     G
Yellow River, Yellow River is in my mind and in my eyes.
  C                                        Em                               G
Yellow River, Yellow River is in my blood, it's the place I love.
Am                                           G
Got no time for explanations, got no time to lose,
     Dm                                                    G       
tomorrow night you'll find me sleeping underneath the moon at
 Am                   - F - G
Yellow River.
 
      C                         Em               Am                         Em
3. Cannon fire lingers in my mind, I'm so glad that I'm still alive,
           Am                        Dm                         G
    and I've been gone for such a long time, Yellow River.
 
   C                        Em                      Am                        Em
4. I remember, the nights were cool, I can still see the water pool,
         Am                     Dm                              G
    and I remember the girl that I knew, from Yellow River.
