A night on the river

de Burgh Chris

   C
1. Naked and frozen at the side of a lake,
   Dm                            G
   I think I've gone and made my big mistake,
   C                    A7
   I took her swimming, we had a fight,
          Dm                            G
   Now my clothes and the lady are well out of sight,

   F                     G             C            Am
R: And it looks like I'm heading for a night on the river,
   F         G            C
   Under the moon and the stars,
   F              G             C            Am
   Looks like I'm heading for a night on the river,
   F                      G               C
   Me and my beating heart singing in the dark.

2. Naked and frozen at the side of a lake,
   If she was here I wouldn't hesitate,
   To tell her how, the way things are,
   With a long conversation in the back of a car,

R: And it looks like I'm heading for a night on the river,
   Under the moon and the stars,
   Could be I'm heading for a night on the river,
   Just me and my beating heart singing in the dark

3. I think she owes me an explanation,
   She's got the whip hand in this situation,
   If I try to tell her just the way I feel,
   It could start the whole thing all over again,

R: Ooh, I think I'm heading for a night on the river,
   Under the moon and the stars,
   Could be I'm heading for a night on the river,
   But I see the lights of a car shining in the dark,
   
R: Ooh, could be we're heading for a mm-mm 
   Under the moon and the stars,
   Could be we're heading for a mm-mm 
   Just you and me and our beating hearts, 
   We're singing in the dark...
