When [E] the mountain touches [G] the valley, all [Ab] the clouds [A] are taught to fly.
[E] Thus our souls shall leave this land most [Abm] peacefully.
[B]
Though [E] our minds be filled with questions, in [A] our hearts we'll [Bb]
understand.
[B] When the river meets [A] the [E] sea, like a flower that has blossomed [A] in the dry and sand,
[E] we are born and born again most [B] gracefully.
Thus [E] the winds of time shall take us [A] with a sure and [Bb] steady hand.
[B] When the river meets [A] the sea,
Patience, my brothers, [E] and patience, my sons,
in [Gb] that sweet and final hour, truth [B] and justice will [Db] be done.
Like [E] a baby when it is sleeping, [A] in its loving,
[E] what a newborn baby dreams is [B] a mystery.

[E] When the [B] river meets [A] the [E] sea,
When the river [B]

[E] ocean,
