Verse 1
C On the bank of the river
Stood Running F Bear young Indian C brave
On the other side of the river stood his D7 lovely Indian G maid
Little C White Dove was-a her name
Such a F lovely sight to C see
C But their tribes fought with each other
So their G love could never C be

Chorus
Running F Bear loved Little C White Dove
With a G7 love big as the C sky
Running F Bear loved Little C White Dove
With a G7 love that couldn't C die

Verse 2
C He couldn't swim the raging river cause the F river was too C wide
He couldn't reach Little White Dove waiting D7 on the other G side
In the C moonlight he could see her
Throwing F kisses 'cross the C waves
Her little heart was beating faster waiting G there for her C brave

Chorus
Running F Bear loved Little C White Dove
With a G7 love big as the C sky
Running F Bear loved Little C White Dove
With a G7 love that couldn't C die

Verse 3
C Running Bear dove in the water little F White Dove did the C same
C And they swam out to each other
Through the D7 swirling stream they G came
As their C hands touched and their lips met
The raging F river pulled them C down
Now they'll always be together in that G happy hunting C ground

Chorus
Running F Bear loved Little C White Dove
With a G7 love big as the C sky
Running F Bear loved Little C White Dove
With a G7 love that couldn't C die
