John Hiatt – The River Knows Your Name (Guitar)

        F
Oh, the river knows your name

         Dm    C                 Bb
And your tears falling like the rain

      Bb      C             Dm     Bb
All around you suffering and pain

        F    C           F    Fsus4 F
Oh, the river knows your name

        F
And the river hears you cry

       Dm        C               Bb
As the lightning cracks the open sky

        Bb    C            Dm    Bb
As your Momma sings a lullaby

        F    C          F   Fsus4 F
Oh, the river she knows why

        F
Let the river wash you down

           Dm       C            Bb
Beneath the surface with a rushing sound

       Bb            C                 Dm    Bb
Like a freight train passing through a town

        F    C        F     Fsus4 F
Let the river wash you down

        F
Let the river take away

        Dm         C           Bb
All the words that you and I could never say

        Bb      C               Dm    Bb
In the silence, darling, let us pray

        F    C            F    Fsus4 F
Let the river take it all away

        F
Oh, the river knows your name

          Dm            C             Bb
From the Brazos to the Wabash to the Seine

       Bb         C                 Dm   Bb
No two journeys are ever quite the same

        F    C          F     Bb
But the river knows your name

        F    C           Bb     F
Oh, the river knows your name
