I'll Meet You By The River
Recorded by The Chuck Wagon Gang
Written by Albert E. Brumley

G7          C
Over on the bright Elysian shore 
                          F
Where the howling tempest comes no more 
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
           G7
Some sweet day (some happy day)
    C
Far beyond the partings and the tomb 
                         F
Where the charming roses ever bloom 
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
G7         C         F     C
Some sweet day (some happy day)
 
                     F
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
           C         G7    C
Some sweet day (some happy day) 

By the bright and shining river (bright and shining river) 
    G7
Far away (So far away)
              C           G7     C
After we have flown these prison bars 
                     F
To a land that's far beyond the stars 
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
G7         C         F     C
Some sweet day (some happy day) 


After all the sorrow and the strife 
                      F
After all the trouble of this life
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
           G7
Some sweet day (some happy day)
               C
When we gather far beyond the sea
                     F
What a happy meeting that will be 
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
G7         C         F     C
Some sweet day (some happy day)
 
repeat #2
                  G7          C
After all the disappointments here 
                      F
After all the shadows disappear
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
           G7
Some sweet day (some happy day)
                 C
When the evening sun at last goes down 
                     F
When we go to wear a robe and crown
     C
I'll meet you by the river (meet you by the river) 
G7         C         F     C
Some sweet day (some happy day)

repeat #2
