Johnny Preston – Running Bear Chords

Humba humba, humba humba, humba humba, humba

On the bank, of the river, stood Running Bear, young Indian brave
On the other, bank of the river, stood his lovely, Indian maid
Little White Dove, was a her name, such a lovely, sight to see

But their tribes, fought with each other, so their love could never be.
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love, big as the sky
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love that couldn’t die

He couldn’t swim, the raging river, cause the river, was too wide
He couldn’t reach, Little White Dove, waiting on the other side
In the moonlight, he could see her, throwing kisses, cross the waves

Her little heart, was beating faster, waiting there for her brave.
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love, big as the sky
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love that couldn’t die

Running Bear, jumped in the river, Little White Dove did the same
And they swam, to each other, cross the swirling, stream they came
As their hands, touched and their lips met, the raging river, pulled them

Now they’ll always, be together, in that happy hunting ground
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love, big as the sky
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love that couldn’t die

Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love, big as the sky
Running Bear, loved Little White Dove, with a love that couldn’t die
