Moon River

from Odds and Ends by Reuben Walton

about

I decided to cover this song after I heard the lovely rendition of it done by The Innocence Mission on their 2004 album of lullabies, Now the Day Is Over. My Dad also told me he really likes this song, having known it from the film Breakfast at Tiffany's when Audry Hepburn sang it. I added in some higher harmonies to bring out the beautiful chords of this song, particularly the minor iv and major seventh sonorities. I am playing my Taylor 214ce electric acoustic guitar here.

lyrics

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'll be crossing you in style
one day
you dream maker
you heartbreaker
wherever you're going, I'm going your way

two drifters, off to see the world
and there's such a lot of world
to see
we're after the same
rainbow's end

it's just around the bend
my Huckleberry friend
moon river
and me
