[D]
[Bm]
[G] [A]
[D] I stare at a picture, but there's [Bm] nothing for it
I pull on [G] the bottle and [A] watch this river [D] roll on by
Trying to find purpose, trying [Bm] to see meaning
Trying to [G] make sense of the [A] nonsense that I've [D] called my life
Only this river can bear [A] me to safety
Only [Bm] this river can bear [G] me away
[Bm] [G]
[Bm] [G] See [A]
[D] them all working plain, they're [Bm] on the other bank
I warm in [G] their houses while [A] I face [F#m] my [D] cold alone
Guess I've been drinking away to keep the wolves of [Bm] my mind at bay
But [G] if you run, [A] you die, I'm just too [D] tired to care
Only this river can bear [A] me to safety
Only [Bm] this river can bear me [G] away
I [Bm] feel a flow [D]
[A] enrolling me,
[Bm]
drowning [G] my worth
Only [D] this river, [Bm] only this river, only [G] this river
Can [A] save me from [D] myself
Where did my soul go?
Where [A] did my spirit go?
[Bm] They rescued me from the [G] pain in my mind
Only [D] this river can bury [A] me
Only [Bm] this river can [G] bear me away
Only [D] this river, only [Bm] this river, only [D] this river
