The vertical lines indicate bars. 3/4 time [Verse 1] |G |Em |C |G | Moon River, wider than a mile, I'm |C |G |Am/F# |B7 | crossing you in style some day. Old |Em |G7 |C |F9-5 | dream-maker, you heartbreaker, Wher- |Em Em7 |Em7/C# F#7 | ever you're goin’, I’m |Bm7 E7 |Am7 D9 | goin’ your way. [Verse 2] |G |Em |C |G | Two drifters, off to see the world; there's |C |G |Am/F# |B7 | such a lot of world to see. We're |Em |Em/D |Em/C# |C |Bm7 | af - ter the same rainbow's end, |C |G | waiting ’round the bend — |C |G | my huckleberry friend, |G |Am |D7 |G | Moon River, and me.
