verse :

all that i have is a river
Am E
the river is always my home
C F Am F
lord , take me away for i just cannot stay
C G Am
or i’ll sink in my skin and my bones

chorus :
C G C F
the water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
the water can’t drown me , i’m done
F C
with my dyy . . . ing

C G F
please help me build a small boat
Am E
one thatll ride on the flow
C F
where the river runs deep
Am F
and the larger fish creep
C G Am
im glad of what keeps me afloat

C G C F
the water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
the water can’t drown me , i’m done
F C
with my dyy . . . ing

C G F
now deeper the water i sail
Am E
and faster the current im in
C F
that each night brings the stars
Am F
and the song in my heart
C G Am
is a tune for the journeymans tale

C G C F
the water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
the water can’t drown me , i’m done
F C
with my dyy . . . ing

bridge :
E Am
now the land that i knew is a dream
E Am
and the line on the distance grows faint
C F C F
so wide is my river , the horizon a sliver
C F Am F
the artist has run out of paint

C G F
where the blue of the sea meets the sky
Am E
and the big yellow sun leads me home
C F
im everywhere now
Am F
the way is a vow
C G Am
to the wind of each breath by and by

C G C F
the water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
the water can’t drown me , i’m done
F C
with my dyy . . . ing
