So something like that for the strumming pattern also (1 bass pluck then 2 strums) [Verse] C G F All that I have is a river Am E The river is always my home C F Am F Lord, take me away for I just cannot stay C Dm F Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones [Chorus] C G C F The water sustains me without even trying C G Am The water can't drown me, I'm done F C With my dyy...ing [Interlude] C G C C (just holds top 2 strings for G here) C G F Please help me build a small boat Am E One that’ll ride on the flow C F Where the river runs deep Am F And the larger fish creep C Dm F I'm glad of what keeps me afloat C G C F The water sustains me without even trying C G Am The water can't drown me, I'm done F C With my dyy...ing [Interlude] C G C C C G F Now deeper the water I sail Am E And faster the current I'm in C F That each night brings the stars Am F And the song in my heart C Dm F Is a tune for the journeyman's tale C G C F The water sustains me without even trying C G Am The water can't drown me, I'm done F With my dyy...ing [Bridge] E Am Now the land that I knew is a dream E Am And the line on the distance grows faint C Dm C Dm So wide is my river, the horizon a sliver C G F The artist has run out of paint... C G F Where the blue of the sea meets the sky Am E And the big yellow sun leads me home C F I'm everywhere now Am F The way is a vow C Dm F To the wind of each breath by and by C G C F The water sustains me without even trying C G Am The water can't drown me, I'm done F C With my dyy...ing [Outro] Played similar to intro (with the added hammer-ons on G, Am at end) C G C F C G Am F C Please correct me if I'm wrong but if you watch the video you'll see where the changes are that I've made especially on the bridge.
