[D]
[Bm]
[G] [A]
[D] I stare at a picture, but there's [Bm] nothing for it
I pull [G] on the bottle and [A] watch this river roll [D] on by
Trying to find purpose, trying [Bm] to see meaning
Trying to [G] make sense of [A] nonsense that I've [D] called my life
Only this river can bear [A] me to safety
Only [Bm] this river can bear [G] me away
I [Bm] [G]
[Bm] [G] [A]
see [D] them all working plain, they're [Bm] on the other bank
A warm [G] in their houses [A] while I face my [D] cold alone
Guess I've been drinking away to keep the wolves [Bm] of my mind at bay
But [G] if you run, [A] you die, and I'm just too [D] tired to care
Only this river can bear [A] me to safety
Only [Bm] this river can bear [G] me away
I [Bm] feel a [D] flood [A] roll me,
[Bm]
drown [G] in my words
Only [D] this river
[Bm]
[N] Can [G]
[A] save me [D] from myself
Where did my soul go?
Where [A] did my spirit hide?
[Bm] Won't they rescue me from the [G] pain in my mind?
Only [D] this river can [A] soar me
Only [Bm] this river
[G] Only [D] this river
[Bm] Only this river
[D] Only this river
