[Dm] Where you rest by the river, [G] down in the [Am] low, low land
[Dm] Where the air is dark and sinister, [G] and the night is [Am] no safe place to stand
[Dm] In the breeze arise [G] the peak, voices I can't [Am] understand
Flamingos
[Dm] flang endlessly [G]
to [Am] the silent sky
[C] Father, I'll be every [Em] place you never let [Am] me despair
[C] Father, I'll be every [Em] place if you want [Am] me to be there
As [C] I am on the river, [Em]
I never [Am] saw your face
[Dm] Well, you look like your mama, [G]
before you [Am] walked the swamps
[Dm] Learn to make that snake [G] dance too, from your daddy [Am] crazy talking fisherman
In [Dm] this place there is no [G] law, the river makes all [Am] the rules
What [Dm] they are I found [G] out, when I came [Am] to the foyer
[C] Father, I'll be every [Em] place, why did you [Am] bring me here?
[C] Father, I'll be every [Em] place, my life has [Am] turned to fear
[C] Child of the river, [Em] let me [Am] feel you there

Well, [Dm] you left in the city, [G] but I knew [Am] after a year
[Dm] That you'd cry in the city, [G] I should not [Am] have brought you here
So [Dm] far from the bayou, [G] down in the [Am] low, low land
[Dm] Don't know why you left me, [G] now I think I [Am] understand
[Dm] Take me back to the river, [G] down in the [Am] smoky ground
[Dm] Where snakes crawl, you don't [G] cheat, by the river you [Am] live for now
[Dm] In the swell of the river, [G] the riverboat sails [Am] by so proud
I [Dm] should have gone there with you, [G] but now they're turned [Am] to you and proud
[C] Father of the everland, [Em] I [Am] can feel you there
[C] Father of the everland, [Em] I know [Am] I'll find you there
[C] Child of the river, [Em] I [Am] can't sleep but still
[C] Father of the everland, [Em] I [Am] want to feel you there
[C] Father of the everland, [Em] I [Am] must find you there
