Em  C  Em  C Em 


[Verse 1]

Em                                    C
  Just give me a reason why I should take this
Em                                  C
  Laying at my feet expecting your sins just to be washed away
E                   C                 E                               C
  Cos you're a liar, and I'm the fire, that's gonna burn you to the ground
E           C              E                     C   D
  If desire, is my messiah, you'll never put me out


[Chorus]

              Em                                    C      Em Am
So don't you call me up, to tap me up, cos I don't need you
         Em                                             C      Em Am
Yet you call me up, forget you give it up, so I gotta leave you
       Em                           C Em Am
Well that's the way the river flows
     Em                                                  C       Em Am                         
You call me up, but you're out of luck, they'll never believe you


[Verse 2]

Em                                       C
  You're dropping up demons but I'll embrace it
Em                                          C
  What you pray in my fee collect all your sins just to resurrect the pain
E                   C                 E                               C
  Cos you're a liar, and I'm the fire, that's gonna burn you to the ground
E           C              E                     C    
  If desire, is my messiah, you'll never put me out

Em        C   D
   (Ouuh ooh ouuh)
Em            C            D
(Oouh you'll never put me out)


[Bridge]

Am                       C
  So quick and abandoning you'll cause a fight
Em                                D
  So quick and abandoning, then what's the point in life
Am                       C                 D
  I'm sick of abandoning, nor so sick of imagining

Em   C Em Am


[Chorus]

              Em                                    C      Em Am
So don't you call me up, to tap me up, cos I don't need you
         Em                                             C      Em Am
Yet you call me up, forget you give it up, so I gotta leave you
      Am                         C
Well that's the way the river flows
  Em                        D
That's the way the river flows
  Am                        C
That's the way the river flows
  Em                        D
That's the way the river flows


[Outro]

Am                
  You never learn until you tell me that you love me
C
  You never learn until you tell me that you love me
Em
  You never learn until you tell me that you love me
D
  You never learn until you, you never learn until you
Am
  You never learn until you tell me that you love me
C
  You never learn until you tell me that you love me
Em
  You never learn until you tell me that you love me
D
  You never learn until you, you never learn until you
  
 Am                        C
That's the way the river flows
  Em                        D
That's the way the river flows
