    "The Winding Stream" (G) The Carter Family

                    G 
Oh, give to me a winding stream
                   D 
It must not be too wide

Where waving leaves from maple trees
 D7                  G 
Do meet from either side.
 
The water must be deep enough
   G7            C 
To float a small canoe,
     D               G 
With no one else but you.

CHORUS: 
   G                        D 
Oh do not disturb my waking dream
                    D7         G 
And the splendor of my winding stream,
                        G7                  C 
Flower in my canoe her eyes they looked me through.
                    G              D              G 
My maiden fair with golden hair is very much like you.


 G 
The sparkling trout beneath the bank
                      D 
Does leave his hiding place.

Kingfisher from the bough above
   D7            G 
So eager to give chase.

The spreading branches overhead,
    G7              C 
The sunrise peeking through,
     D                 G 
When looking, dear, at you.

CHORUS: 
   G                        D 
Oh do not disturb my waking dream
                    D7         G 
And the splendor of my winding stream,
                        G7                  C 
Flower in my canoe her eyes they looked me through.
                    G              D              G 
My maiden fair with golden hair is very much like you.
