The River

Intro: C  Em  F }x3
       Am  Em  F  
 
First Verse: 
        C              Em  
In the latest midnight hour  
          F  
When the world has gone to sleep  
              C  Em  F  
You gotta get up  
      C              Em  
When doubts begin to rise  
         F  
And the world is at your feet  
              Am  Em  F  
You gotta get up  
 
Chorus: 
 C  Em  F                       C  Em  F  
Reach,  It's not as bad as it seems  
    C           Em  F              Am  Em  
I cleanse in the river for somebody else,  
     F  
For anyone but myself

Second Verse: 
     C            Em  
I'm not a selfless man  
     F  
I'm not a man of wealth  
      C          Em  
If I had all the world,  
          F  
Probably give it to myself  
          C            Em  
But the trees begin to walk  
          F  
And the ground begins to talk  
         Am Em F  
And myself  
 
Chorus: 
 C  Em  F                       C  Em  F  
Reach,  It's not as bad as it seems  
    C           Em  F              Am  Em  
I cleanse in the river for somebody else,  
     F  
For anyone but myself

Hold my place  
               G  
Don't you give up on me  
 
Hold on... Hold on 
 
Chorus: 
 C  Em  F                       C  Em  F  
Reach,  It's not as bad as it seems  
    C           Em  F              Am  Em  
I cleanse in the river for somebody else,  
     F  
For anyone but myself

I cleanse in the river for somebody else,  
     F  
For anyone but myself
