verse 1 
Am 
    Well, I remember living 
F              Em          Am 
   On the western coast of France 
              F         Em                 Am 
Only seventeen when the girl first took my heart 
    Am 
And though I’ve seen the rivers 
F               Em              Am 
   They never looked as good as you 
Am 
    And though I’ve seen the rivers 
F          Em                Am 
They never looked as good as you 

verse 2 
Am 
    Sometimes the lantern shines down 
F      Em                   Am 
   Sometimes they show your face 
Am 
    Sometimes I have to close off 
F       Em                 Am 
   Anything just to save a trace 
Am 
    And though I’ve seen the rivers 
F             Em                Am 
   They never looked as good as you 
    Am 
And though I’ve seen the rivers 
F                Em                 Am 
   All they ever do is remind me of you

verse 3 
Am 
    Oh, Well I could’ve loved you 
F             Em               Am 
   You know I once believed in you 
Am 
    Oh, you know I could have loved you 
      F           Em      Am 
Every word I said must be true 
Am 
    But though I’ve seen the rivers 
F             Em                Am 
   They never looked as good as you 
Am 
    And though I’ve seen the rivers 
F            Em           Am 
   They only remind me of you
