Pain Lies on the Riverside

Am                  Dm
 I have never taken life
Am                       Dm
 Yet I have often paid the price
Am                               Dm
 And you, you are a victim of this age
Am
 And the guilt that hangs around your neck
Dm
 Has got me locked up in a cage
              F        G             Am
 You've to to learn to live until no end
               F             G
 But first you must learn to swim
          E
 All over again
 Because

Am                Dm
 Pain lies on the riverside
Am                   Dm
 And pain will never say goodbye, no, no
Am                Dm
 Pain lies on the riverside
             E                 F  G
 So put your feet in the water
          E                    F   G
 Put your head in the water now
          E
 Put your soul in the water
     F             G         Am
 And join me for a swim tonight

 I have forever always tried
