[G] When they arrived it was cold and dark, they [C]  set up they're camp [G] quickly

[G] It was too hard to tell how long she's been dead the [C] river was that close to [G] freezing 
But one things for sure, the girl hadn't died very [C] well to judge from the [G] bruising

There's [G] so much [C] water [D] so close to [G] home h[C] [G] h[C] [G]
 
[spoken]
[G] So here's what they did, they carried her downstream from their fishing, 
between [C] two smooth rocks they gently [G] wedged her 
After all it was late, they had come a long way, and the [C] girl would keep, she was going [G] nowhere 
[Em] They stayed up there [G] fishing for two days
They [Em] reported it on Sunday when they came back [C] down 
[sung] [G] There's so much [C] water [D] so close to [G] home h[C] [G] h[C] [G]

[G] The newspapers said the girl had been strangled to [C] death, and also [G] molested 
On the day of the funeral, the radio reported that a young [C] man had been [G] arrested 
[Em] I went to the service a [G] stranger, [Em] I drove past the lake out of [C] town
