The River

D *D G/D D *D You know a dream is like a river ever changin' as it flows. G D/F# Em7 A And the dreamer's just a vessel that must follow where it goes. D G/D D *D Bm G Trying to learn from what's behind you, and never knowing what's in store D G/D D *D A D #D# Makes each day a constant battle just to stay between the shores D G/D D *D G/D D *D And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry. G D/F# Em7 A Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky. Bm A/C# D G/D D *D G I'll never reach my destination if I never try. D G/D D *D A D #D# So, I will sail my vessel 'till the river runs dry. D *D G/D D *D 2: Too many times we stand aside and let the water slip away G D/F# Em7 A 'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today. D G/D D *D Bm G So, don't you sit upon the shorline and say you're satisfied. D G/D D *D A D #D# Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide. D G/D D *D G/D D *D And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry. G D/F# Em7 A Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky.
