Intro
NONE
VERSE:
G
I want a lock of your hair
D
I'm pretty sure it cures disease
Em
All you gotta do is lay your hands on me
G D
Until the illness leaves
G
I want us to be happy
D
Better than our families
Em
All we gotta do is lay beside the creek
G D
Until we grow a tree
CHORUS:
Em C G D
We're swimmin' in the rivers and we're drivin' on the roads
Em C D G
We're always movin' forward like a fly upon a globe
VERSE:
G
Swear I'll try to believe
D
You love me just as God made me
Em
E lack of faith, a man with no belief
G D
Who passes in his sleep
G
And I'll be your Kentucky
D
Pressed in your book of dried up leaf
Em
All you gotta do is promise to read me
G D
The chapters may be brief
CHORUS:
Em C G D
We're swimmin' in the rivers and we're drivin' on the roads
Em C D G
We're always movin' forward like a fly upon a globe
VERSE:
G
When I wake up with a fever
D
It must have been a dream I can't recall
Em
Always feels like the rain is comin' down
G D
As soon as I come up
G
When I'm freezin' through the evenin'
D
You heart is burnin' like an anthracite
Em
It quickens me in spite of all December's wrath
G D
Throughout the aftermath
CHORUS:
Em C G D
We're swimmin' in the rivers and we're drivin' on the roads
Em C D G
We're always movin' forward like a fly upon a globe
Em C G D
We're swimmin' in the rivers and we're drivin' on the roads
Em C D G
We're always movin' forward like a fly upon a globe
BREAK:
D
When you cross the stream
C G
Well you do so to find me
C G D
And walk along the salmon like a song
D
And the steps you take
C G
Might break me without warning
C G D
And remind me of the sorrow in the song
CHORUS:
Em C G D
We're swimmin' in the rivers and we're drivin' on the roads
Em C D G
We're always movin' forward like a fly upon a globe
Em C G D
We're swimmin' in the rivers and we're drivin' on the roads
Em C D G
We're always movin' forward like a fly upon a globe
