G                             Am 
I can't believe it's true I finally got you here 
G                            Am 
I've been waiting for this moment for some years 
         Bm          C 
I've been torn down enough to know 
         Bm          C 
Everyone goes through this door 
C7                 A 
Just before their lives explode 
Am                  D 
Come in here with a heavy load 

G                     Am 
Walking down the road watching the day begin 
G                     Am 
Radio song is playing off in a distant wind 
               Bm          C 
But you can feel it it's a gentle love 
    Bm                   C 
Coming out soft from the windows above 
C7                 A 
Just when you have had enough 
Am                                  D 
Here comes the world you've been dreaming of 

G     Bm7    Em7     D 
Oh my my the Mystic River 
C               G            Am       D 
She takes your heart And you will forgive her and         
G     Bm7      Em7     D 
Lay me down beside the water 
C         G           Am        D 
I look across at the sons and daughters 

G                         Am 
Sun comes up each day to chase away the moon 
G                             Am 
Even the stars at night they fade away too soon 
          Bm                   C 
You can't do much about the trouble life brings 
 Bm                        C 
Cut all the lines so the phones don't ring 
    C7                     A 
But stay here once from spring to spring 
Am                           D 
Watching the ice melt the mornings sing 

G     Bm7      Em7     D 
Oh my my the Mystic River 
C               G              Am     D 
She takes your heart And you will forgive her and 
G      Bm7      Em7     D 
Lay me down beside the water 
C         G       Am        D 
I miss my sons, I miss my daughters 

G     Bm    Em7    D  C     G  Am  D7 
Now...            Oooh now...    

Instrumental Solo

                        Ohh... 
      
G                          Am 
There's a tree that grows out in the burning sands 
G                          Am 
Never a drop of rain that nobody understands 
         Bm     C 
You can push me I don't mind 
 Bm                      C 
Leave me out here and I'll be fine 
C                         A7 
Cause everyone's gonna have their time 
Am                D 
Up or down honey you decide 

G     Bm      Em7     D 
Oh my my the Mystic River 
C               G          A7       D 
She takes your heart And you will forgive her and 
G     Bm      Em7     D 
Lay me down beside the water 
C         G       Am        D 
I miss my sons, I miss my daughters 
G     Bm    Em7    D   C     G  Am  D7 
Now...           Oooh now...    
C         D         Em     A7 
                     Ohh...
