The River Bed Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][A][Em][A][Em][A]
[Em]I

[Verse 1]
come [E]down to the
river [Em]and I watch as the sun goes down
And I [A]feel the earth shiver
As [Em]the darkness comes circling round
And I swore I would not come here
And I know I should not stay
Any [A]thoughts of heaven born I have
[Em]I choose to cast them away
She [E]appears [Em]by the water in
[E]the light [Em]of a quarter moon
She is [A]dressed in lace and velvet and
shades of [E]grays [Em]and maro[E]ons[Em]
She knows without me speaking
until I have her I can[A]not [Em]rest
[A]She smiles as she comes to me
And I lean [Em]down and I kiss her [E]breast
[Em][E][Em][A][Em][E][Em]
[A][Em]
She rips the cross from around my neck
She says, take me down to the river bed
For once [A]you have had me,
you'll not be [Em]satisfied with the undead
We walk into the river,
oh I cannot see the shore
And I [A]am baptized in dark water,
and I'm [Em]hers forevermore
[E][Em][E][Em][E][Em][E][A][Em][E][Em]
[E][Em][A][Em]
Underneath my feet,
oh, there's a rumble
[E]In [Em]the heavens, there are storms
[A]And I feel myself sinking
In[Em]to something dark and

[Outro 1]
warm
