Chords

[Intro] Am C F C G [Chorus]
       C
I will cross o'er the river

    F           G            C
And rest in the shade of the trees

        Am
There's someone across that river

      D7                           G
I can hear familiar voices calling me

  C
I know I'll miss my family

  F                    G             Am
I hope that they won't worry for too long

           C
Cause it's only across the river

    G                              C
And I'll be that much closer to my home
[Verse]
       C
I will cross o'er the river

     F              G            C
I've got to make it to the other shore

        Am
There's something across that river

       D7                       G
That's powerful and cannot be ignored

      C
I can see the grass is greener

  F               G                 Am
A perfect spot is waiting there for me

       C
I will cross o'er the river

    G                        C     C
And rest in the shade of the trees
[Bridge]
        Am                      C
Oh it's not so big a river it's not so deep and wide

  F                               C              G
I don't think I'll be coming back from the other side
[Solo] C F G C C G C C
        Am                      C
Oh it's not so big a river it's not so deep and wide

  F                           C              G
I know I won't be coming back from the other side
[Chorus]
       C
I will cross o'er the river

    F           G            C
And rest in the shade of the trees

        Am
There's someone across that river

      D7                           G
I can hear familiar voices calling me

  C
I know I'll miss my family

  F                    G             Am
I hope that they won't worry for too long

           C
Cause it's only across the river

    G                              C
And I'll be that much closer to my home
[Outro]

Ye-e-e-es

     C
It's only across the river

    G                              Am   C   F   C
And I'll be that much closer to my home
