I Know Why The River Runs by Lee Ann Womack




I Know Why The River Runs 



 
 
CAPO: 2nd Fret 
 
INTRO: C  Dm  F  G  (2x)
 
       C         Dm       F
When I reach to hold you___
G              C     Dm  F  G
I'll still be alone
       C          Dm     F
When I hear the ringing___
G          C     Dm  F  G  Dm
Of the telephone
               F       Dm
I'll think it is you
             F   G   Am
It will not be true
 
 
CHORUS:
       F       C     G
I know why the river runs
     Am        F          C     G   Am
To a place somewhere far away
       F       C      G
I know why the sky is crying
           Am         F          C   G
When there aren't any words to say
 
 
INTERLUDE: Am  F  C  G  Am  F  C  G
 
 
        C         Dm      F
I could play the message___
G              C     Dm  F  G
That you left for me
      C          Dm       F
I can hear your voice and__
G              C   Dm  F  G  Dm
I could still believe
                    F        Dm
That you will soon be home
                  F   G   Am
But you will never come
 
 
CHORUS:
       F       C     G
I know why the river runs
     Am        F          C     G   Am
To a place somewhere far away
       F       C      G
I know why the sky is crying
           Am         F          C   G
When there aren't any words to say
 
 
INTERLUDE: Am  F  C  G  Am
 
 
BRIDGE:
                         F                 Am
There's a silence that I don't want to keep
                            G               F
There's a hole now where my heart used to be
                              Am
You say that healing comes in time
      G                     F      C   F
But I don't know what that means_________
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL: C  G  Am  F  C  G  Am  F  C  G  Am  F  C  G  Dm
 
 
                F         Dm
I lie here for so long
                  F   G   Am
But you will never come_____ 
 
 
 
CHORUS:
       F       C     G
I know why the river runs
     Am        F          C     G   Am
To a place somewhere far away
       F       C      G
I know why the sky is crying
           Am         F         C   G   Am
When there aren't any words to say
