The River

D *D G/D D *D
You know a dream is like a river ever changin' as it flows.
G D/Fis Em7 A
And the dreamer's just a vessel that must follow where it goes.
D G/D D *D Hm G
Trying to learn from what's behind you, and never knowing what's in store
D G/D D *D A D #D#
Makes each day a constant battle just to stay between the shores

Chorus:
D G/D D *D G/D D *D
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
G D/Fis Em7 A
Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky.
Hm A/Cis D G/D D *D G
I'll never reach my destination if I never try.
D G/D D *D A D #D#
So, I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.

Too many times we stand aside and let the water slip away
'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today.
So, don't you sit upon the shoreline and say you're satisfied.
Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide.

Bridge:
A/Cis Hm G D D/Fis G
And there's bound to be rough waters and I know I'll take some falls.
Em7 D/Fis G Asus
But with the Good Lord as my captain, I can make it through them all.

Chorus: (with key change)
E A/E E A/E E
Yes, I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
A E/Gis Fism7 H
Like a bird upon the wind, these water's are my sky.
Cism H/Dis E A/E E A
I'll never reach my destination if I never try.
E A/E E H E Fism7 E/Gis
So, I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
A E A/E E H A H/A
Yes, I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
A H/A
'til the river runs dry.

By *D I mean to hammer on from Dsus2 (xx0230) to D (xx0232) on the 1st string.
#D# is D-D-Dsus4-D-Dsus2-D
