[Verse 1]
  C      Csus2         F/C      C
I always cry, on the train back home

             C         Csus2  F/C      C
Watchin' the world outside, I used to know

          F
Soon as I get there

              C     Csus2  C   F/C    C
I have to go
[Verse 2]
        C         Csus2           F/C           C
And the years go by, don't even know where I've been

       C           Csus2         F/C         C
In the blink of an eye, could've all been a dream

               F
But I have to find somewhere

               C   Csus2  C   F/C  C
To call my own

           F
Soon as I get there

          Gsus4   G
I have to go
[Chorus]
C          F      Gsus4    G         C     C/B
  With two hands, meant to shape the land

              Am        F              Gsus4    G
  Just like a river does,  just like a river does

Am            F             Gsus4   G    C
  Another day breaks, and I have to go away

   C/B        Am       F
  Gone like a river does

                   Gsus4      G
  All alone like a river does

  C     Csus2  C   F/C     C

[Verse 3]
       C             Csus2    C     F/C        C
And my landscape has changed, since last I was here

C           Csus2 C  F/C       C
Some people stay and some disappear

                  F
But I'll always remember

                 C    Csus2  C    F/C    C
This part of me

                   F
And I can't help but wonder

               Gsus4   G
How I'll ever leave
[Chorus]
C          F      Gsus4    G         C     C/B
  With two hands, meant to shape the land

              Am        F              Gsus4    G
  Just like a river does,  just like a river does

Am            F             Gsus4   G    C
  Another day breaks, and I have to go away

   C/B        Am       F
  Gone like a river does

                   Gsus4      G
  All alone like a river does

  C       F        Gsus4   G

[Bridge]
Am       F       Gsus4  G
Woah, oh-oh, oh

       C   F      Gsus4  G
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

Am        F        Gsus4  G
Ooh, ooh-ooh, woo-ooh
[Chorus]
C          F      Gsus4    G         C     C/B
  With two hands, meant to shape the land

              Am        F              Gsus4    G
  Just like a river does,  just like a river does

Am            F             Gsus4   G    C
  Another day breaks, and I have to go away

   C/B        Am       F
  Gone like a river does

                   Gsus4      G
  All alone like a river does
[Outro]
     C           Csus2       F/C         C
So I bottle the sound of the wind in the trees

           C           Csus2  F/C         C
Follow the salt in the air,   down to the sea

            F
Just like a river does

                C
Just like a river does
