[D] [C] [G]
If my words did glow with the [C] gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp
[Em] Armstrong [G] would you hear my voice?
Come through [C] the music
Would you [G] hold it?
[D] [C]
As it were [G] you're wrong.
It's a hand-me-down
The thoughts [C] are broken
Perhaps
They're better
Let come [G] some
I don't know
Don't [C] really care
[G]
Let there be [D] songs to [C]
[Em] fill the [G] air
[Am] River
Still [D] waters
When [G] there is no
[C] pebble-tossed
[A] No wind to [D] blow reach out your [G] hand
If your cup [C] be empty
If your cup is full may it be
Again let it be known
[A] There [C] is a fountain
That [G] was not [D] made
[C] By the hands of men
There is a road
No [C] simple highway
Between the dawn and the dark [G] of night
And if you go
No [C] one may follow
[Am]
[G] That [D] path is for
[C]
Your steps [G] alone
[Am] River
Still [D] water
[F#] When there [G] is no
pebble [C] -tossed
No [A] wind to [D] blow You [G] choose
To [C] lead must follow
But if you fall
You fall
[G] Alone if you should stand
[Bm] Then [C] who's to guide you?
If I knew [D] the way
[C] I would take you [G] home
