River
Standard Tuning - No Capo
The chords I have for the intro come in after the hi-hat. It's about 4 seconds in
as I noted below.
It may seem suspicious that I virtually have only two chords, but they're really
the only ones in there. Could I find other ones that kinda fit?
I'm sure I could, but she doesn't use them.
Sorry if the lyrics are a bit off, I got them off a lyrics site and fixed any
errors I found but a couple words are a little hard to make out.
[Intro - 0:04] C, F X2
C
Out across cities I see buildings burn into piles
F
And watch the world in wonder as mountains turn into tiles
C
And trees losing their leaves and their faces becoming tired
F
I wish I could discover something that doesn't expire
C
Come and stumble me
[Chorus]
C
Take me river carry me far
F
Lead me river like a mother
C F
Take me over to some other unknown
C
Pull me in the undertow
C
Such are the things that make a kingdom rumble and shatter
F
The same dynamic that another day would never matter
C
It really just depends on who's giving and who's receiving
F
And things that don't make sense are always a little deceiving
G F
Come and humble me
[Chorus]
C
Take me river carry me far
F
Lead me river like a mother
C F
Take me over to some other unknown
C
Pull me in the undertow
Am F C
I wanna go where you're going
Am
A follower following
F
Changing but never changed
G F
Claiming but never claimed
[Chorus]
C
Take me river carry me far
F
Lead me river like a mother
C F
Take me over to some other unknown
Pull me in the undertow
C
Take me river carry me far
F
Lead me river like a mother
C F
Take me over to some other unknown
Pull me in the undertow
C
Take me river carry me far
F
Lead me river like a mother

Take me over to some other unknown

And watch the world in wonder as mountains turn into tiles
And trees losing their leaves and faces becoming tired
I wish I could discover something that doesn't expire
Come and stumble me
Take me river carry me far
Lead me river like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Pull me in the undertow
Such are the things that make a kingdom rumble and shatter
The same dynamic that another day would never matter
It really just depends on who's giving and who's receiving
And things that don't make sense are always a little deceiving.
