Chords used: D5 , A5 , G5 , B5 

Verse 1:
D5            A5
Across that river
         G5                 A5
Thru the orange squares of light
D5        A5
Past the streetlamps 
       G5             A5
Like a beacon in the rain
D5       A5 
You've stopped in all this motion
        G5          A5
You're heavy with news too sudden
  D5               A5                G5       A5
You're breathing through this undertow of pain
   B5                     A5
And all your friends will gather soon and you'll
G5               A5
Surface then to bring them through, you'll say,
D5                 A5           G5       D5
It's better this way, and at least we knew
          B5          A5
But this practice in leaving,
          G5              A5
All these small moves to grieving,
         G5                            A5
Does it ever really promise what's deserved?

Chorus:
               D5           A5
Cuz you wanna take him in your arms
     G5            A5
And carry to the river
          D5          A5
Find the boy he once was
     G5       D5
And row him home
           B5       A5
You want a majesty restored
         B5                   A5
Find the place where love was born
            G5    A5
And let him go

            G5  A5  A5
And let him go

 
Let him go

D5 , A5 , G5 , A5
D5 , A5 , G5 , A5

Verse 2 (same as verse 1):
Many Sundays pass since the day of his first leaving
And you've stopped asking for the role to be reversed
With the grace that follows those who know what love is
You held his hand and walked towards this strange rebirth
And as the friends gather round to bear witness
You struggle with the fight to find some peace, to make it worth it

Chorus:
D5             A5
Cuz you wanna take him in your arms
     G5            A5
And carry to the river
         D5            A5
Find the boy he once was
     G5     D5
And row him home
           B5       A5 
You want a majesty restored
         B5                    A5
Find the place where love was born
            G5      A5
And let him go

            G5       A5   A5
And let him gooooo (hoooooome)

          D5           A5
You wanna take him in your arms
     G5             A5
And carry to the river
         D5           A5
Find the boy he once was
    G5        D5
And row him home
B5      A5
You want a majesty restored
