River chords by Leon Bridges

G#    C# (Repeat)

G#
Been traveling these wide roads for so long
            C#
My heart?s been far from you
           G#
Ten-thousand miles gone


Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
       C#
Every part of me

But there is blood on my hands
           G#
And my lips aren?t clean

In my darkness I remember
          C#
Momma?s words reoccur to me

"Surrender to the good Lord
              Dbm
And he?ll wipe your slate clean"


Take me to your river
  G#
I wanna go
   Dbm
Oh, go on

Take me to your river
 G#
I wanna know


Tip me in your smooth waters

I go in
     C#
As a man with many crimes

Come up for air
         G#
As my sins flow down the Jordan

Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
       C#
Every part of me

But there is blood on my hands
           Dbm
And my lips aren?t clean


Take me to your river
  G#
I wanna go
  Dbm
Go on

Take me to your river
 G#
I wanna know

(Vocals)
I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
G# - C# alternate
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know

Dbm
Take me to your river
  G#
I wanna go
          Dbm
Lord, please let me know

Take me to your river
 G#m
I wanna know
