Intro
Em G D Em x2
[Verse 1]
Em D
Starry night shes watching, weary eyes remind him of all he's forgotten. New day on the horizon.
Em D
Midnight calls the wind comes in through windows and old walls.
Em
She says time is a rerun of playing God for a season.
[Chorus]
G D Am
We all go down to the river, whether saint or sinner
C D Em
We've all got ties to the giver. We all go down to the river.
G D Am
Lay me down when the night falls, give our bones when the time calls.
C D Em
Oh my brother and sister we all go down to the river.
[Intro Part]
[Verse 2]
Em D
It's the salt in resistor, it's the burn in the liquor. In the heart of a drifter is the sting is a
splinter.
Em D
There's a peace that I dream of settles into a sweet hum
Em
It is there for everyone, for all time, for a reason.
[Chorus]
G D Am
We all go down to the river, whether saint or sinner
C D Em
We've all got ties to the giver. We all go down to the river.
G D Am
Lay me down when the night falls, give our bones when the time calls.
C D Em
Oh my brother and sister we all go down to the river.
[Bridge]
C G D Em
oooooohhhhh we've been here before. ooooooohhhhh knocking on the door.
C G D Em
ooooohhhhhh I can hear the call. ooooohhhhhhh here beneath it all.
[Chorus]
G D Am
We all go down to the river, whether saint or sinner
C D Em
We've all got ties to the giver. We all go down to the river.
G D Am
Lay me down when the night falls, give our bones when the time calls.
C D Em
Oh my brother and sister we all go down to the river.
