[Intro]
C F C F

[Verse 1]
C F C
Love is clumsy, it falls like rain
C G C
It brings you flowers then storms away
C F C
When we were younger we ran like the wild wind
C G C
But now we only run out of things to say

[Chorus]
C F G
I'm no longer made of water
G C G F
'Cause I've cried until I'm dry as the dust
F G
God I wish I were the river
G C G F G C F C
Because the river knows how to run

[Verse 2]
C
Damn this place and the way we settled
C G C
We sold our dreams for cheaper stuff
C
The rivers cut through rocks and canyons
C G C
But you and I we, we just gave up

[Chorus]
C F G
I'm no longer made of water
G C G F
'Cause I've cried until I'm dry as the dust
F G
God I wish I were the river
G C G F G C
Because the river knows how to run

[Bridge]
F G
Run for the hills, run for my life
Am Dm
Go with the flow, out with the tide
F G
Run
F G
Holy water wash these sins away
Am Dm
I hear the wild callin' my name
F G
Run
F G
Run
