F#  B 
 
E          A 
Inching together 
E         A 
Moving forever 
E           A 
Closer and closer 
F#          B 
With every day 
E              A 
Still like the lakeside 
    E           A 
But deep on the inside 
E              A 
You're moving towards me 
F#        B 
Moving to stay 
      G#       C#m 
We'll never be broken 
       G#          C#m 
Though storms may assail us 
          A         E         A   (B) E 
Like the sweet Allegheny and Monongahela

F#  B 
 
E              A 
That old man river 
     E       A 
Will never deliver 
     E       A 
The water he promised 
     F#            B 
That he'd bring to you 
     E         A 
And that Mississippi 
    E         A 
Is longer and taller 
     E              A 
But ain't got that something 
F#         B 
Between us two 
       G#          C#m 
'Cause we've got a love, girl 
      G#         C#m 
That will never fail us 
          A         E        A   (B) E 
Like the sweet Allegheny and Monongahela 
 
E   A (x3) 
F#  B 
     G#            C#m            G# 
Oh, when we come together, girl 
           C#m 
Around the bend 
F#                F#7 
I can't tell the difference 
         B7               B 
Between where you end and I begin 
             E             A 
'Cause we're one like the Master 
    E          A 
Of Heaven who made us 
          A        E          A  (B) E 
Like the sweet Allegheny and Monongahela 
          A        E          A  (B) E 
Like the sweet Allegheny and Monongahela
