Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You're bitter, bitter, bitter,
bitter is [G]sweet[Gm][G]
So [Bm]give in, give in, give in,
give me [G]more
Your [D]figure, figure, figure,
figure of [G]speech[Gm][G]
[Bm]Someone will face the fire [D]if you [Bm]fall[G]
And when you fall

[Verse 2]
[Bm]Staring down the b[G]arrel of a g[D]un
[Bm]I knew that yo[G]u would be the one[D]
[Bm]Raise a glass, [G]looking at [D]the sun
Mimic [A]life you've seen and spun

[Verse 3]
Well you [Bm]told me last night that you [G]think
About how [D]you and I met in
[A]the spring of our [Bm]lives
You've regressed to [G]the sting,
chasing your [D]shadow in the
mirror of the [A]king[D]
[A]Hearing you [Bm]sing

[Verse 4]
Raise me from the [G]living
I've come [D]again.
Raise me to the [A]limits you gave me then.
[Bm]Save me from the river[G] of sin again,
[D]again, again
[A]Black River

[Interlude 1]
[D]

[Verse 5]
[D]Bigger, bigger, bigger, bigger than [G]me
[Bm]Waiting to face the barrel
when you [G]call
[D]Wither, wither, wither, wither in [G]me
[Bm]Ready to face the fire if you [G]fall
And when you fall

[Verse 6]
[Bm]Staring down the b[G]arrel of a g[D]un,
[Bm]I knew that yo[D]u would be[G] the one[D].
[Bm]Raise a glass [G]looking at [D]the sun,
Mimic [A]life you've seen then spun.

[Verse 7]
Well you [Bm]told me last
night that you [G]think
About how [D]you and I met in
[A]the spring of our [Bm]lives
You've regressed to [G]the sting,
chasing your [D]shadow in the
mirror of the [A]king[D]
[A]Hearing you [Bm]sing

[Verse 8]
Raise me from the [G]living
I've come [D]again
Raise me to the [A]limits you gave me [Bm]then
Save me from the [G]river of sin again,
[D]again, aga[A]in
Black [Bm]River[G][D][A]
Black [Bm]River

[Verse 9]
[D]Oh, [G]oh, [Bm]oh, [G]oh
And when you fall

[Verse 10]
[Bm]Staring down the b[G]arrel of a g[D]un,

[Verse 13]
[Bm]
You'll [G]chase, you'll wither,
[D]your sin[A], black riv[Bm]er!
You'll [G]chase, you'll [D]wither,
your [A]sin, black [Bm]river!
You'll [G]chase, you'll wither,
[D]you[A]r sin[D], bla[A]ck river![Bm]
You'll [Em]chase, you'll wither,
[D]your sin[A], black river!
