 C                   Em             Am                 Em
So long boy you can take my place, got my papers I've got my pay
     Am                   Dm7             G
So pack my bags and I'll be on my way to Yellow River
 C                    Em          Am                     Em
Put my guns down the war is won, fill my glass high the time has come
     Am                Dm7               G
I'm going back to the place that I love Yellow River

 C                             Em              G
Yellow River, Yellow River is in my mind and in my eyes
 C                             Em              G
Yellow River, Yellow River is in my blood it's the place I love
 Am                          G
Got no time for explanation got no time to lose
   Dm7                                  G                      Am
Tomorrow night you'll find me sleeping underneath the moon at Yellow River



Cannon fire lingers in my mind I'm so glad that I'm still alive
And I've been gone for such a long time from Yellow River
I remember the nights were cool I can still see the water pool
And I remember the girl that I knew from Yellow River


Yellow River Yellow River is in my mind and in my eyes
Yellow River Yellow River is in my blood it's the place I love
Got no time for explanation got no time to lose
Tomorrow night you'll find me
Sleeping underneath the moon at Yellow River


Yellow River, Yellow River is in my mind and in my eyes
Yellow River, Yellow River is in my blood it's the place I love

==========================================
Het nummer Yellow River werd aan The Tremeloes aangeboden door
componist Jeff Christie, maar brachten ze aanvankelijk niet zelf
uit. De band Christie - rond Jeff Christie en de broer van gitarist
Alan Blakely - werd speciaal gevormd om het nummer uit te brengen,
waarbij de zangpartij van Jeff Christie werd toegevoegd aan de reeds
ingespeelde begeleiding van The Tremeloes. Het resulteerde in 1970
in een grote hit.
