Biography:
Austin Texas in the 1970s saw the rise of a number of artists and Michael Murphey (as he was known then) is one of them. Carolina In The Pines and What's Forever For were chart hits for Michael, but over the years he's proven another song was the most prophetic - he really did just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy and in the later years he's filled the niche of Cowboy singer. Still his voice is a strong instrument and he's a likable performer.

G
There's a Lost River that flows
C G
In a valley where no one goes
D7 C
Where the wild water's rush
D7 G
Rumbles deep in the hush
Gone far from there now
C G
Lord I'll get back somehow
D7 C
To where the white water winds
D7 G
In the shadow of the pines
C G
Oh Lost River now I'm coming back
D7 C
To the pot-belly stove
D7 G
Where the firewood's all stacked
Come back girl go with me
C G
Your my belle my fleur-de-lis
D7 C
Where the Lost River winds
D7 G
In the shadow of the pines
Now everybody knows
C G
Where that Lost River flows
D7 C
It's someplace he's lost
D7 G
Behind bridges that he's crossed
Well he'd like to return
C G
But his bridges are all burned
D7 C
And he's much too far down
D7 G
To return to higher ground
C G
Oh Lost River now I'm coming back
D7 C
To the pot-belly stove
D7 G
Where the firewood's all stacked
Come back girl go with me
C G
Your my belle my fleur-de-lis
D7 C
Where the Lost River winds
D7 G
In the shadow of the pines
C G
Oh Lost River far over the ridge
D7 C
Now is it too late
D7 G
For me to build me a new bridge
To the bright golden time
C G
When her love was still mine
D7 C
And the world was still wild
D7 G
Like the heart of a child
C G
Oh Lost River now I'm coming back
D7 C
To the pot-belly stove
D7 G
Where the firewood's all stacked
Come back girl go with me
C G
Your my belle my fleur-de-lis
D7 C
Where the Lost River winds
D7 G
In the shadow of the pines
D7 C
Where the Lost River winds
D7 G
In the shadow of the pines
There's a Lost River that flows
