Verse 1

         B5                  F# E5
And they came to the river
         B5                  F# E5
And they came from the road
       B5                  F# E5
And he wanted the sun
        B5                  F# E5
Just to call his own

Verse 2

         B5                  F# E5
And they walked on the dirt
         B5                  F# E5
And they walked from the road
          B5                  F# E5
'Til they came to the river
          B5                  F# E5
'Til they came up close

Chorus

           B5                  G5 F#5
Throw your pain in the river
           B5                  G5 F#5
Throw your pain in the river
           B5                  G5 F#5
Leave your pain in the river
      B5                  G5 F#5   N.C
To be washed away slow

Verse 3

       B5                  F# E5
And we walked without words
       B5                  F# E5
And we walked with our lives
    B5                  F# E5
Two silent birds circled by

Chorus

       B5                  G5 F#5
Like a pain in the river
        B5                  G5 F#5
And the pain in the river
        B5                  G5 F#5
And the white sun scattered
        B5                  G5 F#5
Washed away this slow

Verse 4

       B5                  F# E5
And we followed the river
       B5                  F# E5
And we followed the road
       B5                  F# E5
And we walked through this land
       B5                  F# E5
And we called it a home

Verse 5

       B5                 D5 G5
But he wanted the sun
      B5                 D5 G5
And I wanted the whole
        B5                 D5 G5
And the white light scatters
        B5                 D5 G5
And the sun sets low

Chorus

       B5                  G5 F#5
Like a pain in the river
        B5                  G5 F#5
And the pain in the river
       B5                  G5 F#5
Like a white light scatters
        B5                  G5 F#5
To be washed away slow
       B5                  G5 F#5
Like a pain in the river
       B5                  G5 F#5
Like a pain in the river
         B5                  G5 F#5
Like the way life scattered
      B5                  G5 F#5
To be washed away slow
