[N]
[Gm]
Take me back to my boat on the river I [F] need to go down, [D] I need to come down
[Gm] Take me back to my boat on the river [F] And I won't cry out [Gm] anymore
Time stands still as I gaze in the water It [F] eases me down
[D] Touching me gently with [Gm] the waters that flow Pass my boat on the river
So [F] I don't cry out [Gm] anymore Oh, the [F] river is wise
The [D] river, it touches [Gm] my life like the waves on [C] the sand
And all [Cm] roads lead to [Gm] tranquility base Where the [A] bound on my faith [D] disappears
[Gm] Take me down to my boat on the river [F] And I won't cry [D] out [Gm] anymore
Oh,
[F]

[D] [G]
[F] the river is deep [Dm] The river, it touches my [G] life like the waves [C] on the sand
And [Cm]
all roads lead to [Gm]
tranquility base [A] Where the bound on my faith [D] disappears
[Gm] Take me down to my boat on the river I [F] need to go down, won't you [D] let me go down
[Gm] Take me back to my boat on the river [F] And I won't cry out [Gm] anymore
[F] And I won't cry out anymore [Gm] And I won't cry out anymore
