Let's go down 2 the holy river
F#m   E


A                     Emaj7      
If we drown then we'll be 
    F#m  E
delivered

        A                   Emaj7
U can still see the picture upon the
 wall
F#m                 E
One eye staring at nothing at all

    A                  Emaj7      
The other one trying 2 focus 
             F#m   E
through all your tears

       A                     
U can try and try but there's 
Emaj7
nothin' 2 hide
        F#m                     A
U can't run from yourself and what's
 inside

   A                          
U got 2 find the answers 2 the 
  Emaj7                F#m   E
questions that U most fear


BDA K:
   D               C#m
So over and over U ask your soul
 D                     E
Why'd U come down 2 a world so cold?
         D                 C#m    
And the voice inside says 2night 
                 F#m   E
the truth will be told


VERSE:
       A                  Emaj7
U surrounded yourself with all the 
wrong faces
 F#m                   E
Spending your time in all the wrong 
places

 A                     Emaj7      
Puttin' your faith in things that 
            F#m  E
only make U cry

 A                               
People say they love U when they 
Emaj7
wanna help
    F#m                        E
But how can they when U can't help 
yourself?

     A
The more they say they love U,
     Emaj7            F#m     E
The more U just wanna die

    A                        
So here we go again, the self 
  Emaj7
analysis
F#m                               
Have another glass of Port and uh.. 
E
forget this

     A                        
The band's playin' at the club 2 
Emaj7
night
                     F#m   E
And they're bound 2 groove


BDA K:
  D             C#m

   D                         E
U can't ask yourself cuz U'd only 
lie
D                   C#m          
If U had a dollar 4 every time U 
F#m    E
tried


VERSE:
   A                            
U can't call nobody cuz they'll 
Emaj7
tell U straight up
F#m                        E
Come and make love when U really 
hate 'em

   A                        Emaj7 
Relationships based on the 
               F#m   E
physical are over and done


VERSE::
 E                A        Emaj7
They're over and done oooh ooooh
                  F#m         E
(They're over and done) oooh oooh

 E               A       Emaj7
U'd rather have fun oooh oooh
          F#m  E
With only one,

           A
With only one
     Emaj7
Only one
     F#m
Only one
 E  E
One


VERSE:
     A                      Emaj7
And then it hit 'cha like a fist on 
a wall
F#m                             E
Who gave U life when there was none 
at all?

     A                        
Who gave the sun permission 2 
Emaj7        F#m
rise up everyday? (Ooh,alright)
 E
Let me tell it (Go'n)

A              Emaj7
If U ask God 2 love U longer
F#m                       E
Every breath U take will make U 
stronger

  A
Keepin' U happy (happy)
    Emaj7            F#m
And proud 2 call His name (Go'n and 
say it)
 E
Jesus (Jesus)


BDA K:
    D               C#m
And over and over U ask your soul
 D                     E
Why'd U come down 2 a world so cold?
         D                 C#m    
And the voice inside said 2night 
                 F#m
the truth will be told
              E
And this time I was listening, hear 
me


VERSE:
 A                  Emaj7
Let's go down 2 the holy river
F#m                    E
If we drown then we'll be delivered 
(Yes we will)

A                     Emaj7      
If we don't then we'll never see 
     F#m   E
the light (No-oh)

A          Emaj7
If U die before U try
     F#m                   E
U'll have 2 come back and face the 
light (Oh yes)

 A
When U believe it,
 Emaj7                F#m  E
U got a good reason 2 cry (Oh my, 
my)

     A                 Emaj7
So, went on down 2 the holy river
   F#m                             
I called my girl and told her I had
  A
 something 2 give her

   A                       Emaj7  
I asked her 2 marry me and she 
          F#m   E
said yes, I cried

          A                     
Oh, that night I drowned in her 
Emaj7
tears and mine
          F#m                  
And.. and instead of a glass of 
        E
sorrow oh, and wine

              A                  
Looking back y'all, I don't miss 
Emaj7              F#m   E
nothing except the time

            A                 
And when I see that picture up on 
Emaj7
the wall
    F#m                 E
The one eye staring at nothing at 
all

    A                      Emaj7  
My eyes trying 2 focus but these 
                  F#m
are much different tears
E
Oh, yes they are
