Up the Lazy River       (Listen to midi)

 

     A                                   A7

1. Up the lazy river by the old mill run,

           D                                D7

    the lazy, lazy river in the noon-day sun,

    G                                   G7

    linger in the shade of a kind old  tree,

         C                      G                           C          B7

    throw away your troubles, dream a dream of me.

 

      A                                         A7

    Up the lazy river, where the robin's song

         D                                                  D7

    awakes a bright new mornin' where we can move along.

       F                     D       C                 A

    Blue skies up above, ev'ryone's in love,

     F                G               C                       A

    up the lazy river, how happy we would be,

    D                 G             C      - B7

    up the lazy river with me.
