Like The River (8 Track Demo) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Floating downstream
[G]like swans [D]in the sun,
Sur[Bm]rounded by [A]friends and lov[D]ers,
We looked on smiling,
At [G]the evening [D]so bright,
[Bm]River [A]behind and [G]the fading delight,
[D]

[Verse 2]
I [A]knew her back from when
[G]she [D]was young,
[Bm]Days blow in [A]faster than
[G]rounds [D]from a gun,
[A]Scattered like shells and
[Gm]lost [G]to [D]the sea,
Like the [Bm]river, the [A]days flow
[G]Rapidly
[D]

[Verse 3]
I have all these memories,
I don't know what they are for,
I [Bm]have them and [A]I cannot h[D]elp it,
Some overflow and spill out like waves,
[Bm]And some I will harbour
[A]for[G] all of my [D]days.

[Verse 4]
I like [A]burn like oil,
You [G]grew like a flower[D],
[Bm]Rising [A]towards your ma
[G]gical [A]hour,
For I was not yours and [G]you
were [Gm]not m[D]ine,
But [Bm]true love it [A]finds us [G]when it is time.
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][A]
[D][Bm][F#m][D]

[Verse 5]
[D]You drove back down town,
To [Bm]highways that [A]I remember,
[D]Happy for you and happy for me,
The [Bm]old times an[A]d the ne[D]w,
[A]I lay down in,
In [Gm]love with the [D]night,
My new [Bm]love [A]beside me,
A [G]radiant [F#m]light,
[A]Fading away alo[G]ng with my [D]thoughts,
And like [Bm]a train, [A]I trail on
[G]Mystically

[Outro 1]
[D]
