I met my love near Woolwich Pier
G C G
beneath the big pier standing
G D
And all the love I felt for her
G D G
it passed all understanding
C
Took her sailing on the river,
G D G D
flow sweet river flow
G C
London town was mine to give her,
G D C G
sweet Thames flow softly
D D7
Made the Thames in to a crown,
C G D
flow sweet river flow
D7
Made a brooch of Silver town,
C G D7 G
Sweet Thames flow softly
G D
From Shadwell dock to Nine Elms Reach
G C G
We cheek to cheek were dancing
G D
Her necklace made of London Bridge
G D G
Her beauty was en chanting
C
Kissed her once again at Wapping
G D G D
flow sweet river flow
G C
After that there was no stopping
G D C G
sweet Thames flow softly
D D7
Gave at Richmond Park a twist
C D
flow sweet river flow
D7
Into a bracelet for her wrist
C G D7 G
Sweet Thames flow softly
G D
But now alas the tide has changed
G C G
My love she has gone from me
G D
Winter’s frost has touched my heart
G D G
And put a blight upon me
C
Creeping fog is on the river
G D G D
flow sweet river flow
G C
Sun and moon and stars gone with her
G D C G
sweet Thames flow softly
D D7
Swift the Thames flows to the sea
C G D
flow sweet river flow
D7
Bearing ships and part of me
C G D7 G
Sweet Thames flow softly
