I was watching Airplane and I had a strong urge to play this song. However, I was 
shocked that the song wasn't up on the site. I have only been playing guitar for a 
little over a year, so please help me with this tab! Please give me your comments!

    D           Em           D
 I traveled the banks of the River of Jordan
      D             Em           A
 To find where it flows to the sea.
      Em          B7          Em            B7
 I looked in the eyes of the cold and the hungry
       Em          B7        Em
 And I saw I was looking at me.
    G                 Bm
 I wanted to know if life had a purpose
      G                        A
 And what it all means in the end.
         D         Em           D            Em
 In the silence I listened to voices inside me
           D         G         D
 And they told me again and again.

 
   D                 A                       D
 There is only one river. There is only one sea.
                       A                         D
 And it flows through you, and it flows through me.
                     Bm                        G
 There is only one people. We are one and the same.
                   E                    A
 We are all one spirit. We are all one name.
             D        G                   D
 We are the father, mother, daughter and son.
                     E              A
 From the dawn of creation, we are one.
         A
 We are one.

 
   D     Em       D            Em
 Every blade of grass on the mountain
   D     Em         A
 Every drop in the sea
   Em   B7       Em      B7
 Every cry of a newborn baby
   Em   B7           Em
 Every prayer to be free
   G                Bm
 Every hope at the end of a rainbow
         G        A
 Every song ever sung
       D            Em         D
 Is a part of the family of woman and man
   Em  D       G      D
 And that means everyone.

 
   D                 A                       D
 There is only one river. There is only one sea.
                       A                         D
 And it flows through you, and it flows through me.
                     Bm                        G
 There is only one people. We are one and the same.
                   E                    A
 We are all one spirit. We are all one name.
             D        G                   D
 We are the father, mother, daughter and son.
                     E              A
 From the dawn of creation, we are one.
         A
 We are one.
