Move the River Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][C][Am][F][Dm]

[Verse 1]
[Am]It's
not the shadow of a lost plane
Or the [F]rumble of a railway [C]line
It's [F]coming with the strength
of an iron horse
And [Am]without [C]you[G] on its[C] min[F]d
Now, I've been sitting on
the fire escape of the
Fair[C]mont looking [F]down
[Dm]There's not a bridge going anywhere
[C]That you'd wanna be found
[F][Am]

[Verse 2]
It's not a good idea to cross it
It [F]may not have another [C]side
It [Dm]may b[C]e [F]hot enough
to melt your clothes
But you [C]won't step out [F]alive[Dm]
[F]You're gonna wanna get your lamp lit
[C]Can't nobody see you [F]now[Am]
[Dm]It's not as dark as it's gonna get
And we're [C]a long way [G]from
[C]higher [F]ground
There's no way [Dm]around

[Verse 3]
[F]
[Dm]it ([Am]mm)
There's [G]no way around [F]it (oo
[Dm]h oo[Am]h ooh ooh)
However you feel about [F]it
We're [Dm]gon na move the [Am]river
However you feel [F]about it
We're gonna [Dm]move
We're gonna move the river
[Am]

[Verse 4]
The sky's the color of an ashtray
Full of [F]Van Gogh's yellow [G]cloud[C] s
And [F]those aren't gospel
songs you hear
Being sun[C]g in t[F]he crowd
May [Am]a ladder [F]appear in the smoke
[C]Through a hole we can [F]climb[Am]
[Dm]You see the torches on a battered boat
Of a ghost [C]ship without any [F]guide
There's no way [Dm]around

[Verse 5]
[F]it (ooh oo
[Dm]h oo[Am]h ooh)
There's [G]no way [F]around it (ooh
[Dm]ooh [Am]ooh ooh)
However you feel about [F]it
We're [Dm]gon na move the [Am]river
Whatever you do [F]about it
We're gonna [Dm]move
We're gonna move the [Am]river

[Interlude 1]
[Am][F]
[C][F][C][F][C][F][Dm]
[C][F]
[Am]We've been sleeping in the backseat

[Verse 6]
[Dm]On our rooftops and open[Am] roads
[Dm]And soon we'll[G] be ri[F]ding on oi[Dm]l ca[F]ns
Wear[Am]ing [C]everything t[G]hat we own[F]
If men are all brothers then brother
[C]Why do you treat us this [F]way?[Am]
[Dm]We've already been overserved
May be [C]sick but not [G]too much [F]to say
There's no way [Dm]around

[Verse 7]
[F]it [Dm](oo
[Am]h ooh ooh ooh)
There's no [C]way around [F]it (oo
[Dm]h oo[Am]h ooh ooh)
However you feel [F]about it
We're gonna [Dm]move [Am]the river
However you feel [F]about it
We're gonna [Dm]move the [Am]river
Whatever you do [F]about it
We're gonna [Dm]move the [Am]river
There's no two ways [F]about it
We're gonna [Dm]move the [Am]river

[Outro 1]
[Am][F][Dm]
