Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
I'd like to [G]finish with the Four [C]Rivers,
[G]and the reading from
[C]Pablo Neruda's
Let the Rail [Db]Splitter Awake.
[Ab][C][Ab][F#][Ab]
[C]Here's [Ab]the story of the
four river[F#]s
[Ab]That the eyes of the world are on
They're called [Db]the Thames,
[Ab]the Mississippi,
and the Yangtze, and the [Db]Dun n.
[Ab]All [F]the four r[F#]ivers,[Ab]
[C]apart [Ab]as they could be,
[C]But they dis[Ab]covered how to get together[F#],
[Ab]Where the rivers roll [Db]to the sea.
[C]River [Ab]rolling down to the open
[G]sea.[C][Ab][F][Ab]
[C]Here's the [Ab]story of four sailors,
[F#]That [Ab]the eyes of the world are on.
Their names [Db]are [F#]John,
and [Ab]John, Paul, and Tommy,
and a [C]fourth is [Ab]named Yvonne.
[F#]Of a four rivers,
[Ab]and raised them separately.
But [C]they discovered [Ab]how to
get [F#]together,
When they [Ab]all sailed down to [C]the sea,
River [Ab]rolling down to
the open [G]sea.[C][Ab][F]
[G]Now [C]the [Db]people [Ab]of the four river[Gb]s
must be [Ab]friends,
as time moves [Ebm]on,
[Ab]beside the T[C]hame[Gb]s,
the [Ab]Mis sissippi,
and the Yersey, and the [Db]Dun [Ab]n.
For the [Gb]four rivers,
wherever [Ab]men may be,
They [Gb]must discover [Ab]how to
[Gb]live together
While the [Ab]rivers roll to [C]the sea,
[Ab]River [Gb]rolling [Ab]down [Gb]to th[Ab]e open se[Ab]a.
