and it gets deep er,

and let me say,

and it gets high er, er, ba by,

day by (Bb)day.

(Bb)Riv er deep, moun tain high.

(Ab)If I lost you, would I cry?

(Bb)Oh, how I love you, ba by,

When you were a young boy, (Eb)did you have a pup py

that al ways fol lowed you a round?

Well, I’m gon na be as (Eb)faith ful as that pup py.

You know I’ll nev er let you down.
