This song is pretty simple with only
 picking three chords and you can 
strum it if you
want. I put two parts to every 
chord, but I also heard another part
 on D. The last parts
on every chord are mostly meant to 
be played when the song gets more 
intense and higher.
It's a fun experimental song, try 
out different way to play it! :)

Intro: D, C, G

Verse 1:
        D        C            G  
River's edge, so quiet and full 
            D
of potential
     C            G                
With weeping trees and just enough 
D
nightfall
   C                   G      D
To cover up the strays
      D                 C
I can hear boats in the distance
       G                       
Making saviours out of ordinary 
         D
people

Chorus 1:
         C         G         
Now they sing in a symphony of 
  D
keepers
         C           G        
And they hail in the harmony of 
  D
saviours


Verse 2:
              D                    
You've got to live, live, live, and
 C
 love, love, love
            G                      
Whether you like it or not, I will 
D
love you


Chorus 2:
        C             G           
Now the wind picks up swiftly and 
D
suddenly
         C            G       
And it's breathing as if from a 
  D
mouth
        C         G              
And the edges are lungs that are 
D
heaving
         C             G          
And it's breathing now without my 
D
help
       C                G      
And we turn against the darkness 
       D
with intention


Verse 3:
        D            C            
River's edge, you're all that I 
    G
have
                        D
And a night filled with promises
    C                    G        
And just enough nightfall to cover
        D
 up the strays


Chorus 4:
        C            G          D
Now the river's like horses unbroken
       C         G          D
And it really is time for a change
       C         G               
And it moves and connects with a 
D
uniform
        C          G         
And the bodies return to their 
  D
makers
         C             G          
And it's good and it's true, let 
   D
it wash over you
    C          G         D
Untethered and without a reason

D    C    G
