Subject: RE: Chord Req: sweet thames ,flow softley
C               G                C      F         G
I met my girl at Woolwich Pier Beneath a big crane standing

    C             G                C         G       C
And Oh the love I felt for her it passed all understanding

                F             C          G
Took her sailing on the river Flow sweet river flow

C             F                G                C
London Town was mine to give her Sweet Thames Flow Softly

G                              F    C    G
Made the Thames into a crown   Flow sweet river flow

C               F       G    F    C         G    C
Made a brooch of Silver Town Sweet Thames Flow Softly


Thats more or less the chords I use- Song collected from the Critics Group Argo 12 inch album circa 1965.Actually sung by John Faulkner
