You Are The River

G C G C G C G C


[Verse 1]
       G    C        G
I fall into you, get pulled along
               C     D
Dragged out to sea before too long
      G        C      Em       C
Funny how it’s me who made you strong
            G    D            G
You are the river and I’m the rain

                  C             G
You’ll flood your banks, you’ll take out towns
       C            D
I dove in, swearing I won’t drown
   G    C           Em        C
If only I could just slow you down
            G    D             G
You are the river and I’m the rain


[Chorus]
           Em            C
We’re just too much now, too much now
Continues after the ad
  G                   D
I guess we’re both to blame
   Em                C                   G     D
No I don’t know how, I don’t know how to stay away…


[Verse 2]
  G     C         G
I never know just when to stop
               C               D      D7
You swell with pride till your levels drop
  G         C   Em      C
A hurricane, oh all was lost
            G    D            G
You are the river and I’m the rain


[Instrumental]

G C Em C G D G


[Bridge]
C           G
We’ll never change
                D
Try to wish us away, Love
       C
Oh but I know better
Cm              G
We’re a perfect storm
                    D   G
It’s just how we’re made
C           D7
I fall, you run…


[Chorus]
           Em            C
We’re just too much now, too much now
      G              D
It'll always be that way
Em                C                      G
I don’t know how, I don’t know how we'll ever change
           D                  G   C
You’re the river and I am the rain
            G    C             G
You are the river and I am the rain
