Riversong(Keyboard chords)

	        

     

        A          D        A 
I laid down by the river's edge 
        A             D        A 
I laid down wondering where it led 
        A             D     A 
I laid down by the river's edge 
           F#m     D      A 
And I woke up in a river bed 

            A      D     A 
There were flowers in my hair 
         A             D     A 
River flowers floating everywhere 
            A               D         A 
And all the fishes came and kissed my feet 
         F#m          D        A 
Dear old fishes, they said to me 

          C#m          F#m 
They said oh, we could love you 
           D                A 
But we are not yet what you want 
        C#m              F#m 
Because oh, anyone could love you 
               D               A 
You've got to find where you belong 

         A                D       A 
All my needles, they were gone so fast 
         A         D     A 
Not a needle left on a branch 
         A            D       A 
I grew weaker and the river strong 
            F#m            D         A 
I said, hey fishes But the fish were gone 

         A                   D        A 
Now the boulders I know they heard me cry 
              A                    D     A 
But they were stone-faced and they stood aside 
          A           D      A 
So I went on at the river's pace 
        F#m                         D       A 
With my eyes closed, I thought I heard them say 
    
          C#m          F#m 
They said oh, we could love you 
           D                A 
But we are not yet what you want 
        C#m                F#m 
Because oh, we would only crush you 
              D              A 
You've got to find where you belong 

C#m          D 
How does it feel 
           F#m 
To be so certain 
           D 
Without question 
          A 
Of your purpose 
F#m 
Your position 
         D 
Of your place 
        A 
Of your home' 
        D 
Of your place 
        E 
Of your home 

C#m                    C#m 
You cannot catch the river though 
   D                    A 
It makes you think you can 
C#m                       C#m 
It trickles through your fingers 
          D               A 
While you hold it in your hands 
          D 
Just like I am 
          A 
Just like I am 
          D 
Just like I am 
          A 
Just like I am
