Am

[Verse]
Am
Take her to the river
C   Am/C Am
Call her a  river child
Am
Take her to the forest
C   Am/C Am
Call her a  little wild
Am
Send her to the gypsy
C    Am/C Am
Forge her of metal coins
Am
Take her to the mountain
    C     Am/C   Am
And thrust yourself into her loins

[Chorus]
C    Am/C  Am
Ca  - li  -   co
C    Am/C  Am
Ca  - li  -   co
C    Am/C  Am
Ca  - li  -   co
        C          Am/C   Am
For her lips are as white as snow

[Verse]
Am
She moved to the mountains
       C  Am/C   Am
With a box of       chiseled sharp
Am
She moved to the highlands
       C  Am/C       Am
With a box of     books so dark
Am
I knew her in the city
C      Am/C  Am
She and I would dance the night
Am
Drink the wine of dripping berries
C        Am/C   Am
Toast the moon and count the lights

[Chorus]
C    Am/C  Am
Ca  - li  -   co
C    Am/C  Am
Ca  - li  -   co
C    Am/C  Am
Ca  - li  -   co
        C         Am/C  Am
For her skin is as soft as snow

[Verse]
Am
Take her to the river
C   Am/C Am
Call her a  river child
Am
Take her to the forest
C   Am/C Am
Call her a  little wild
