[Verse 1]
Esmee by the
river[F], face like a blue [C]jay
A kiss for a shiver was a pretty [G]brave trade
[C]Knowing too little,
but hand[F]s know their o[C]wn way
And hopin' that the river [F]might just
purr a little [C]more
Hopin' that the river
[F]might just purr some more

[Verse 2]
[C]Now spend most the year
[F]and I still sometimes [C]wonder
Did I step too far, or run [G]too soon?
[C]'Til you chased both our fears
off [F]with rose petal [C]thunder
Lit up the river with a [F]heart- [C]size

[Verse 3]
Esmee by [C]the river,
[F]her face like a rain[C]bow
Butterflies growling,
but what does the gut know?
Burnt, bent, and prowling for
[F]faces or [C]footholds
I could see through your eyes like
[F]the stormpaint was [C]gone
Could see through your eyes [F]like the
stormpaint was [C]gone

[Verse 4]
I knew I was moved, there you [F]stood so [C]open
I saw I was drawn to peek in[G]side
[C]Was the glass so pure,
the win[F]dow broken
[C]But the river reached up and it carrie[F]d
[C]me on

[Interlude 2]
[F][C][G][C]
[F][C]

[Verse 5]
Esmee by [C]the river, [F]face [C]like a memory
Patient and pissed like a
[G]black [C]man's song
I carved you a pole from
[F]rosewood and ebony
[C]And threw it to the river
to carry [F]along[C]

[Verse 6]
I hope when she brings it, all [F]slinky and sly
[C]That she'll slide on in it
[G]and taste [C]of its verse
You ask will I write you, of
[F]course [C]the reply's
That rivers of honey,
they sing [F]"honey, [C]of course."
Rivers of honey, they sing [F]"honey,
[C]of course."
Rivers of honey,
[F]sing "honey..."
