Verse
Em G
The city I was born in
C D
I left a long time ago
Em G
We lost touch
C Am D
Grew apart my friend
Em G
My heart's an old pole dancer
C D
Troubled romancer, you know
Em G
It's a subway chancer
C Am D
G question with no answer
[Chorus]
Em G
Come meet me by the river
C D
See how time it flows
Em G
I'll meet you by the river
C Am D
See how time it flows
[Verse 2]
Em G
And when we age
C D
Shed our skin and grow
Em G
We shed our layers
C Am D
Spread our wings and go
Em G
My heart's an old black panther

Corrupted financer, you know
Em G
It's a troubled romancer
C Am D
G question with no answer

Come meet me by the river

See how time it flows

I'll meet you by the river

See how time it flows
