This River

               D              
Stare at a picture but there's 
              Bm
nothing for it
                G                 
I pull on the bottle and watch 
A                D
this river roll on by

                   D               
Trying to find purpose trying to 
       Bm
see meaning
                    G              
Trying to make sense of the 
     A                  D
nonsense that I've called my life


                   D               
Cause only this river can bear me 
       A
to safety
            Bm                  G
Only this river can bear me away
Bm G Bm G A

                 D                 
See them all work and play there on
           Bm
 the other bank
                  G              A
Warm in their houses while I face 
            D
my cold alone

                        D          
Guess I've been a drinking away to 
               Bm
keep the wolves of my mind at bay
            G             A       
But if you run, you die I'm just 
            D
too tired to care





                 D                 
Cause only this river can bear me 
     A
to safety
            Bm                 G
Only this river can bear me away

                 D               
I feel her flowing, flowing right 
       A
through me
                 Bm            
I hear her whispers drowning my 
    G
words
