[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse]
D
Been traveling these wide roads for so long
G
My heart’s been far from you
D
Ten-thousand miles gone
A D
Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
G
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
D
And my lips are unclean
In my darkness I remember
G
Momma’s words reoccur to me
"Surrender to the good Lord
Em
And he’ll wipe your slate clean"
[Chorus]
Em G
Take me to your river
D
I wanna go
Em
Oh-oh-oh- oh
G
Take me to your river
D
I wanna know
[Verse]
N.C.
Tip me in your smooth waters
I go in
G
As a man with many crimes
Come up for air
D
As my sins flow down the Jordan
D
Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
G
Every part of me
But there is blood on my hands
Em
And my lips are unclean
[Chorus]
Em G
Take me to your river
D
I wanna go
Em
Oh-oh-oh- oh
G
Take me to your river
D
I wanna know
[Bridge]
D
I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
D
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
D
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
G
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
D
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
G
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
[Chorus]
Em G
Take me to your river
D
I wanna go
Em
Lord, please let me know
G
Take me to your river
D
I wanna know
