There Is a River

clean

There is a tree that marks the

places you've been

Blood that was spilled, although

not your own,

For all of your tears, are the

wages for things you have done
C                    Am
And all of those nights
          F                        
Spent alone in the darkness of your
   G
 mind
F              Em   Am   G/A
Give it up, Let go
F                             
These are things you were never 
       G
meant to shoulder

So, give up the right

To control the waves that empty out

 your life

Above wild skies

I know the world can turn in

different ways
F                 Em        
Most of the time, we're simply
