River Song One

C             F          Am         F
I watched the water roll in off the river
          C             F           C
And said "My dear we're in for it now"
          Am            Em
You said "Lay your head down
        Am          Em
Next to mine on the ground
          F             G             C
And if the lord doesn't save us we'll drown"

C             F         Am          F
So we both lay there shaking our hands in the river
C            F          C
Saying "I'm sure we were born just to die"
             Am           Em
But when the water rushed in
       Am        Em
I gave in to my sins
    F            G             C
And found my own way to higher ground

C             F         Am          F
Where I watched as the water took hold of your body
C            F          C
From high on my hill of retreat
       Am        Em
You smiled up at me
       Am        Em
Amongst the bodies and trees
       F             G             C
I didn't sleep for a week after that

C             F         Am          F
Finally the river let go of your body
C            F          C
And my mind drifted off into sleep
       Am        Em
But your eyes came to me
       Am        Em
Disguised as the sea
    F            G             C
Saying "I can't forgive you for this"

C             F         Am          F
Please darling, please, you're much stronger than me
C            F          C
And I've tried all my days to believe
       Am        Em
You said "Don't come around
       Am        Em
The next time you get down
    F            G             C
Looking to me for release"
