[Bridge]
C                           D
Sometimes I feel I can't go on

                                C
I get so tired, all passion's gone

C                              D
My heart, my head, my arms, my legs

                                C
Without the strength to crawl away

                                D
Then something breaks inside my soul

                               C
That spirit's finally taking hold

                              D
My ears can hear, my eyes can see

                A               D         G    D
Those clouds of joy still cover me, cover me

      G
Cover me, oh-oh-oh-oh

Where is the river unbroken?

Oh-woah-woah

              G
When will the whistle blow?
[Chorus to fade]
D
Oh-woah-woah

          G
Where is, where is the river unbroken?

Oh-woah-woah

              G
When will the whistle blow?

D
Waiting for the train to come

       G
I keep waiting for the train to come...
