Riversong chords by A Fine Frenzy

• Capo on 2nd

A      D     A
I laid down by the river’s edge

     A        D     A
I laid down wondering where it led

     A        D    A
I laid down by the river’s edge

      F#m     D    A
And I woke up in a river bed


       A    D    A
There were flowers in my hair

     A        D    A
River flowers floating everywhere

       A         D      A
And all the fishes came and kissed my feet

     F#m       D     A
Dear old fishes, they said to me


      C#m       F#m
They said oh, we could love you

      D         A
But we are not yet what you want

     C#m         F#m
Because oh, anyone could love you

        D         A
You’ve got to find where you belong


     A         D     A
All my needles, they were gone so fast

     A      D    A
Not a needle left on a branch

     A       D     A
I grew weaker and the river strong

       F#m        D      A
I said, hey fishes But the fish were gone


     A           D     A
Now the boulders I know they heard me cry

        A           D    A
But they were stone-faced and they stood aside

      A       D    A
So I went on at the river’s pace

     F#m               D     A
With my eyes closed, I thought I heard them say


      C#m       F#m
They said oh, we could love you

      D         A
But we are not yet what you want

     C#m          F#m
Because oh, we would only crush you

        D        A
You’ve got to find where you belong


 C#m       D
How does it feel

      F#m
To be so certain

      D
Without question

      A
Of your purpose

 F#m
Your position

     D
Of your place

     A
Of your home?

     D
Of your place

     E
Of your home


 C#m            C#m
You cannot catch the river though

  D           A
It makes you think you can

 C#m              C#m
It trickles through your fingers

      D         A
While you hold it in your hands

      D
Just like I am

      A
Just like I am

      D
Just like I am

      A
Just like I am
