Intro: C Am F C 
 
  C   Am     F            C 
Moon River wider than a mile 
       F               C        Dm - G 
I'm crossing you in style someday 
       C    Em          F     Em 
Oh, dream maker, you heartbreaker 
     Am             D        Em         F     G 
Wherever you're going I'm going your way 
  C   Am       F              C 
Two drifters off to see the world 
           F             C       Dm   G 
There's such a lot of world to see 
        C             Am      F       C 
We're after the samerainbows end 
F                          C 
And waiting round the bend 
F                    C      Am    F     G             C 
My huckleberry friend Moon River and me

There's such a lot of world to see

We're aft er the samerainbows end

F                    C      Am    F     G             C 
My huckleberry friend Moon River and me
