[Verse]
D                                   Bm                      G
In a dance hall by the river, I was singing in a travelling band
             D                               A
Just another small town night, with a silver moon shining
D                                     Bm                 G
I remember when I saw you, that first moment when it all began
                    D            A                   D    G A
You looked across a crowded room, and stole my heart away.
D                                         Bm                  G
And we stood out in the moonlight, in the shadow of a factory wall
              D                          A
Music playing soft and low, and a gentle breeze sighing
        D                                   Bm                 G
And the light on the river was magic, yes a magic that I still recall
             D             A                         D      G D
Moments come and moments go, but these moments still remain.
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m    A        D    F#m    A         D
Remember how we met, down by the waterside
F#m A           D     G            D
How easily we forget, all the love that we knew.
 
| F#m A Bm | Bm | G | D |

| F#m A Bm | Bm | G | D |
| Bm | F#m | C | G | G |
 
 
[Verse]
D                                           Bm                      G
So we married our fortunes together, and we sealed it with a golden band
                   D                                A
But somewhere down along the road, we could see the flame dying
D                                        Bm                     G
Now an exiled heart gets weary, like two strangers in a foreign land
                     D            A                 D   G D
We reached the point of no return, a long long time ago.
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m    A        D    F#m    A         D
Remember how we met, down by the waterside
F#m A           D     G            D
How easily we forget, all the love we knew.
