[F]
[Eb] [F] Rivers, [Eb]
[F] rivers, [Eb] [F]
rivers, [Eb] [F] oh.
[Eb]
[Bb]
[F] Coming from the riverside,
It's cold down there on the riverside.
[Bb] About to spit some rain in his eyes.
I can't believe the way the snow falls.
He's [F] looking all that lovely by the riverside.
I never noticed him so I couldn't [Bb] smile.
It was easy for him to say,
But I wonder if he'd seen the way to the edge.
[C]
[Bb]
[F] Wading through the city from the riverside,
It was so stupid he was not excited.
[Bb] It didn't make him feel at all happy.
I'm walking round the river,
I'm hiding in [F] the city from the billows.
I can't help it, it's all making me mad.
I don't [Bb] like to be around people.
I can't tell them how bad I'm feeling,
I wouldn't allow it.
Don't [Eb] mind me,
[C] I'll point [F] the finger [Bb] at you.
I'm not mad, [Eb] I can see.
[B] [C] [F] Don't point the finger at [Bb] you.
[Eb] No one seems to be doing too [C] good.
[F] Don't point the finger my [C] way.
Don't put [F] the blame on my [D] way.
[G]
[C] I can't stay where I want to stay.
I'm just a slave to my enemy.
[G] It's cold and hungry by the riverside.
And it's all such a pain,
It's got me [C] tired.
It doesn't make me feel how I want it.
I'm turning round the river,
I'm hiding in the city from the billows.
Don't [F] blame me,
[D] I'll [G] point the finger [C] at you.
I'm not [F] mad, I can see.
[D] Don't [G] point the finger [C] at me.
Don't you [F] do me, don't you do it [D] to me.
Don't [G] point the finger my [D] way.
Don't put [G] the [C] blame on my way.
[Bb]
[F] It's cold and hungry by the riverside.
And it's all such a pain,
It's got me tired.
It [Bb] doesn't make me feel how I want it.
I'm turning round the river,
I'm hiding [F] in the city from the billows.
Don't blame me,
I'll point the finger at you.
I'm not mad, I [Eb]
[F] can see.
[Eb] [F] Don't [Eb] [F] [Eb]
[F] point the finger at [Eb] [F]
