River chords by Eminem

Chorus:
       Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G   C/G
Been a lover, been a cheat
  D/A Em
All my sins need holy water
G    C/G
Feel it washin' over me
  D/A    Em           G     C/G
Oh, little one, I don't wanna admit to somethin'
              D/A  Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
         G       C/G
Truth in my lies right now are fallin' like the rain
      D/A
So let the river run

Verse 1:
Em                      G
He's comin' home with his neck scratched, to catch flack
C/G               D/A
Sweat jackets and dress slacks, mismatch
Em
On his breath's Jack is a sex addict
  G         C/G      A5      D/F#
And she just wants to exact revenge and get back
    Em                  G
It's a chess match, she's on his back like a jetpack
   C/G
She's kept track of all his Internet chats
  D/A      Em
And guess who just happens to be movin' on to the next?
 G      C/G              A5      D/F#
Actually, just shit on my last chick and she has what my ex lacks
Em            G      C/G
'Cause she loves danger, psychopath
                      D/A      Em
And you don't fuck with no man's girl, even I know that

But she's devised some plan
      G      C/G
To stab him in the back, knife in hand
       A5         D/F#    Em
Says the relationship's hangin' by a strand
                G
So she's been on the web lately
   C/G                D/A      Em
Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man
               G
And I know she's usin' me to try to play him
C/G
I don't care, hi Susanne, but I shoulda said bye Susanne

After the first night, but tonight I am

              D/A  Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
        G    C/G          A5
Truth in my lies now are fallin' like the rain

Verse 2:
Em
One-night stand, turned into night stayin'
G       C/G                 D/A
He was callin' so might scram, now we hug tight and
     Em                  G
He found out, now she feels deserted and used
      C/G          A5        D/F#
'Cause he left, so what? He did it first to her too
  Em                           G
Now how am I supposed to tell this girl that we're through?
   C/G                     D/A
It's hard to find the words, I'm aloof, nervous, ensued
      Em
And witnessed you hurt, but what you deserve is the truth
    G      C/G              A5      D/F#
Don't take it personal, I just can't say this in person to you
Em                 G      C/G
So I revert to the studio like hole-in-the-wall diners
                   D/A
Don't have to be reserved in a booth
 Em                        G
I just feel like the person who I'm turnin' into's
  C/G                 A5        D/F#
Irreversible, I preyed on you like it's church at the pew
        Em
And now that I got you I don't want you
        G       C/G
Took advantage of my thirst to pursue
                 D/A
Why do I do this dirt that I do?
     Em                    G
Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon and speech
     C/G
Detergent and bleach is burnin' the wound
N.C.
'Cause now with her in the womb
N.C.
We can't bring her in this world, shoulda knew
N.C.
To use protection 'fore I bit into your forbidden fruit
Fuck!

Chorus:
      Em
I've been a liar, been a thief
G   C/G
Been a lover, been a cheat
  D/A Em
All my sins need holy water
G    C/G     A5
Feel it washin' over me
       Em            G     C/G
Oh, little one, I don't wanna admit to somethin'
              D/A  Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
        G    C/G          A5
Truth in my lies now are fallin' like the rain

So let the river run

Bridge:
Em        G
My name's (ooh), my name's (ooh)
C/G
Denver (ooh), river run
Em       G
Call me (ooh), call me (ooh)
C/G
River (ooh), we'll let the river run

Verse 3:
C/G                       D
Always the bridesmaid, never â??The bride, hey!
                   C/G
Fuck can I say? If life was a highway
                            C/G
The seat was an enclave, I'd be swervin' in five lanes
            D               C/G
Speeds at a high rate, like I'm sliding on ice, maybe
                      D
That's why I may have came at you sideways

I can't keep my lies straight
     C/G
What I made you terminate, my baby
       D
This love triangle, left us in a wreck, tangled
        C/G
What else can I say? It was fun for a while
N.C.
Bet I really woulda loved your smile
N.C.
Didn't really wanna abort, but fuck it
N.C
What's one more lie, to tell an unborn child?

All my sins need holy water
G    C/G     A5
Feel it washin' over me
       Em            G     C/G
Well, little one, I don't wanna admit to somethin'
              D/A  Em
If all it's gonna cause is pain
        G    C/G
Truth in my lies now are fallin' like the rain
      D/A
