Verse
C#m E
The city I was born in
A B
I left a long time ago

Grew apart my friend
C#m E
My heart's an old pole dancer
A B
Troubled romancer, you know
C#m E
It's a subway chancer
A F#m B
E question with no answer
[Chorus]
C#m E
Come meet me by the river
A B
See how time it flows
C#m E
I'll meet you by the river
A F#m B
See how time it flows
[Verse 2]
C#m E
And when we age
A B
Shed our skin and grow

We shed our layers
A F#m B
Spread our wings and go
C#m E
My heart's an old black panther

Come meet me by the river
