Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
C G
Underneath the willow tree,
Am Em
By the riverside, it was you and me,
F C G
Living wild, living free, in our youthful spree.

(Verse 2)
C G
The river sang a lullaby,
Am Em
Underneath the starry sky,
F C G
Your sweet smile, my heart’s high, in our good old time.

(Chorus)
C G
Riverside serenade, our love parades,
Am Em
In the moonlight, our hearts unafraid,
F C G
Whispered promises in the night, never ever fade,
C G
Oh, Riverside serenade.

(Verse 3)
C G
Years passed, we grew apart,
Am Em
But that riverside, still holds my heart,
F C G
Our love story, a timeless art, in the canvas of my heart.

(Chorus)
C G
Riverside serenade, those memories pervade,
Am Em
In the silence of the night, your face never fades,
F C G
Echoes of your laugh, in my mind they parade,
C G
Oh, Riverside serenade.
