Play the E for 1 1/2 measures, the A2 for a 1/2 measure the A for a 1/4 measure, the G
for a 1/4 measure, the E for a 1/2 measure, the A for a 1/2 measure, the G for a 1/2
measure, and the C7M starts the verse. The last A and G chords are played in 2/4 time, 
so even though they are played for a 1/2 measure each, they are equal to a 1/4 measure
compared to the rest of the chords in the song.

Intro: E A2 A G E A G C7M

Each chord in the verse is played for a whole measure except for the A2 G C7M part.
The E before that is played for 1 1/2 measures, the A2 for a 1/2 measure, the G for a 1/2
measure and the C7M starts the next line. The last C7M of the verse is played for 
3/4 of a measure and the B4 is played for a 1/4 measure.

Verse 1:
                            D                             C7M
The long awaited rains have fallen hard upon the thirsty ground
                                        D                            C7M
They?ve carved their way to where the wild and rushing river can be found
                               D
And like the rain, I have been carried here
                    E          A2 G C7M
To where the river flows yeah
                          D                             C7M
My heart is racing and my knees are weak as walk to the edge
                              D                             C7M
I know there is no turning back once my feet have left the ledge
                           D                                 C7M
And in the rush I hear a voice that?s telling me it time to take the leap of faith
    B4
So here I go

In the chorus, the E-B-C#m7 are all played for a 1/2 measure, but the A-B are played for
1/4 measure each. At the end of the chorus, the E is played for 1 1/2 measures, the A2
for a 1/2 measure, the E for 1 1/2 measures, the A2 for a 1/2 measure, the A for a 1/4 
measure, the G for a 1/4 measure, the E for a 1/2 measure, the A for a 1/2 measure, the G
for a 1/2 measure, and the C7M starts the next verse and is played for a whole 
measure. The last A and G chords are played in 2/4 time, so even though they are played for a 
1/2 measure each, they are equal to a 1/4 measure compared to the rest of the chords in the song.
Chorus:
E             B            C#m7
 I?m diving in I?m going deep
            A      B
In over my head I wanna be
E                 B              C#m7
 Caught in the rush lost in the flow
             A     B
In over my head I wanna go
E               B
 The river?s deep the river?s wide
C#m7         A    B
The river?s water is alive
C9        D2             E A2 E
A2 A G E A G C7M
 So sink or swim I?m diving in

Verse 2:
C7M                   D                             C7M
There is a supernatural power in this mighty river?s flow
                           D                            C7M
It can bring the dead to life and it can fill an empty soul
                            D                             E
  A2 G C7M
And give our heart the only thing worth living and worth dying for yeah
C7M                    D                           C7M
But we will never the awesome power of the grace of God
                           D                           C7M
Until we let ourselves get swept away into theis holy flood
                                D
So if you take my hand we?ll close our eyes and count to three
     C7M                      B4
And take the leap of faith come on let?s go!

(Chorus)
