Capo 2

G Em
Well I dove into that river

C G D
To see what I could find

C G D G
And the water it rolled on top of me

C D
And the stars refused to shine

G Em
Well I swam until I could not swim

C G D
Then I swam a little more

C G D G
And the current held me like a lover’s arms

C D
And then it left me on the shore

G Em
Then I stood and looked to from where I came

C G D
The place where I was born

C G D G
But it seemed to me only half is real

C D
Like the dark and distant storm

G Em
And I breathed the air around me

C G D
I felt my heart beat new

C G D G
For I left my home and I nearly drowned

C D G
For a glimpse of something few have ever seen

G C G C G D

C G C G C D

G Em
Then I walked up from the shoreline

C G D
To a city shining bright

C G D G
And I walked the streets of that lovely place

C D
Till the coming of the night

G Em
But there were no voices speaking

C G D
There was not a soul around

C G D G
So I sat alone on an empty throne

C D
In the middle of that town

[Chorus]

C G
And I said oh my, oh me

C G D
Oh me, oh my

C G D G
There’s a river that runs between the sun

C D
And the darkness of our lives
