THE RIVER – Meredith Andrews

Tabbed by: Kengus

Again a piano song, but it can be 
picked quite nicely on guitar as 
well.
The same pattern is used here and 
there in the song, so when you get 
it
going you'll pretty much know the 
whole song. Have fun.

Standard tuning

Everyone...
VERSE1 (continue picking as above)
     Am       G           C      
Everyone is broken and in need of
   Fmaj7
 a Saviour
      Am            G             
So He came and was broken for the 
C               Fmaj7
mocker, for the shamed
         Am          G            
Still our eyes are blinded by the 
C               Fmaj7
culture, by the lies
         Am            G          
We can’t see that were filthy, 
   C             Fmaj7
we’re fallen and so dry...


PD-C HORUS (can be strummed)
         G                 Am7    
But He invites us, can you hear 
  F
him say
     G         Am7        C      
He invites us,   hear Him call 
   F
your name


CHORUS (I'd strum this)
        Am       C
Welcome to the river
          G                 Dm
Come drink, come wade, come find 
your very life
Am                  C         G
    Welcome to the river of God
Continues after the ad
            Fmaj7           G    
Am...straight into interlude
Where your brokenness is washed away

     Am           G/B            
Everywhere is the sorrow and the

pain of empty living
        Am              G/B

world

He invites us, hear Him call your

name
