[C#] I know that we're gonna be together, you and me
For more than a rhyme or two, your time belongs to me
Rolling back down my river, [D#m] chasing my tail to the sea
[C#] Rolling back down my river, [D#m] trying my best to be [C#] me
Watching your crazy [G#] ways and [C#] all the lazy days
Digging you more [F#] and more, [C#] the more I see your face
Rolling back down my river, [D#m] trying my best to be free
[C#] Rolling back down my river, [D#m] chasing my tail to the sea
[C#] Watching the [D#m] simple [C#] things to help me grow along
Loving the ludes [D#m] you bring [C#] to help me sing my song
Rolling back down my river, [D#m] trying my best to be me
[C#] Rolling back down my river, [D#m] singing my songs to the sea
[C#] I know that we're gonna be together, you and me
For more than a time [D#m] or two, your rhymes belong [C#] to me
Rolling back down my river, [D#m] chasing my tail to the sea
[C#] Rolling back down my river, [D#m] trying my best to be [C#] me
