Where the Murray meets the Darling lies a sleepy border town,
                              D            G
The grapevines were in season laden to the ground.
       Em                  Bm
On the gate a rusty sign: 'Pickers apply within',
         C              G         D                  G

[Verse]
    G                                 D             G
All through the harvest season in the long hot afternoons,
                                    D             G
They gathered grapes together their love began to bloom.
    Em                                      Bm
And somehow he had touched her and like the clinging of the vines,
      C              G             D               G
Their lives became entangled their hearts became entwined.

[Chorus]
          C                               G
Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow and brown,
C                      G              D
 In a secret valley he laid a blanket down.
       C                         G                     Em
It was there beside the river he pledged his love that day,
          G                       D                    G   C  D  G
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away.

[Verse]
         G                             D               G
When the harvest time was over and the leaves began to fall,
                                        D          G
They planned to travel northward it was time for moving on.
    Em                             Bm
But as the leaves were falling one night he slipped away,
    C                G         D                   G
Her love had been forsaken the vines lay stark and grey.

[Chorus]
          C                               G
Where the Murray meets the Darling by the water slow and brown,
C                      G              D
 In a secret valley he laid a blanket down.
       C                         G                     Em
It was there beside the river he pledged his love that day,
          G                       D                    G
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away.
                                  D                    G   C  D  G  C  D  G
Where the Murray meets the Darling she gave her heart away.
