Where the Murray meets the Darling lies a sleepy border town 
        A                                     E               A 
The grapevines were in season laden to the ground 
             F#m              C#m                   
On the gate a rusty sign pickers apply within 
                 D                  A            E                           A 
>From the cool of her verandah she watched him wander in 
       A                                              E                   A 
All through the harvest season in the long hot afternoons 
          A                                         E                  A     A 
They gathered grapes together their love begun to bloom 
         F#m                                                    C#m 
 
And somehow he had touched her and like the clinging of the vines 
          D                       A              E                         A 
Their lives became entangled their hearts became entwined 
 
  CHORUS 
                   D                                            A 
  
 Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow and brown 
 D                            A                  E 
In a secret valley he laid a blanket down 
           D                                 A                               F#m 
It was there beside the river he pledged his love that day 
                   A                          
 A 
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away 
           
 
Turnaround  A   D   E   A   
 
 
 
 
 
                 A                                        E

When the harvest time was over and the leaves began to fall 
           A                                               E 
 A 
They planned to travel northward it was time for moving on 
        F#m                                   C#m                                
But as the leaves were falling one night he slipped away 
        D                        A             E                        A 
Her love had been foresaken the vines lay stark and grey 
 
CHORUS 
                   D                                            A 
  
Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow and brown 
 D                            A                  E 
In a secret valley he laid a blanket down 
           D                                  A                           F#m 
It was there beside the river he pledged his love that day 
                   A                                E                          A 
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away 
                   A                                  E 
 A  D  E  A 
 Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart   away.
