Intro
B
[Verse 1]
B
Times are changing and
G#m
Times are moving
E F#
And everything i ever knew
B
Will never be the same
[Verse 2]
B
I lie awake in the same old way
G#m
But there's something in the air
Em
And it's calling me in
E F#
And I know I'll follow
B
I don't think about it anymore
[Verse 3]
B
As the summer ends I think of our last goodbye
G#m
It's hard to imagine the seasons
Without you by my side
E F# B
And I know this winter is going to be especially cold
[Chorus]
B
Like the river
G#m
I roll along
E F#
Today, i'm here
B
Tomorrow, i'm gone
[Verse 4]
B
I saw a group of birds passing by
G#m Em
They were moving like a school of fish in the sky
E F# B
I hold onto that moment and keep it close to me
B
Cause it's times like that that I feel so small
G#m
And I'm humbled
And I feel one with it all
E
And my roots dig deep
F# B
And my branches are so high
[Chorus x2]
B
Like the river
G#m
I roll along
E F#
Today, I'm here
B
Tomorrow I'm gone
[Verse 5]
B
I've walked and i've walked
And i still have so far to tread
G#m
I just need to keep that flock of birds inside my head
E F# B
And that fluttering inside my chest
[Chorus x2]
B
Like the river
G#m
I roll along
E F#
Today, I'm here
B
Tomorrow I'm gone
