C5          G5         F5
All that I have is a river
    A5                E5
The river is always my home
      C5         F5        A5          F5
Lord, take me away for I just cannot stay
        C5          G5           A5
Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones


    C5        G5           C5         F5
The water sustains me without even trying
    C5            G5            A5
The water can't drown me, I'm done
        F5     C5
With my dyy...ing

C5          G5         F5
Please help me build a small boat
    A5                E5
One that'll ride on the flow
      C5         F5        A5          F5
Where the river runs deep, and the larger fish creep
        C5          G5           A5
I'm glad of what keeps me afloat


    C5        G5           C5         F5
The water sustains me without even trying
    C5            G5            A5
The water can't drown me, I'm done
        F5     C5
With my dyy...ing

C5          G5         F5
Now deeper the water I sail
    A5                E5
And faster the current I'm in
      C5         F5        A5          F5
So wide is my river, the horizon a sliver
        C5          G5           A5
The artist has run out of paint


    C5        G5           C5         F5
The water sustains me without even trying
    C5            G5            A5
The water can't drown me, I'm done
        F5     C5
With my dyy...ing

------- 


C5          G5         F5
Where the blue of the sea meets the sky
    A5                E5
And the big yellow sun leads me home
      C5         F5        A5          F5
I'm everywhere now, the way is a vow
        C5          G5           A5
To the wind of each breath by and by


    C5        G5           C5         F5
The water sustains me without even trying
    C5            G5            A5
The water can't drown me, I'm done
        F5     C5
With my dyy...ing
