Tom Rush River Song written by Tom Rush
Tom Rush vocals/acoustic guitar
Marc Cohen harmony
Shawn Colvin harmony
[F]The gypsies know my [C]future
[F]The angels know my [Bb]past
I roll around this [F]big wide world
To [C]find a love to last
[F]I'm weary from my [C]wandering
[F]Lord I'm wounded in a [Bb]war
I'll lay me low where the [F]willows grow
[C7]Listen to that river song
[F]River runs by my window
[Bb]River runs by my [F]door
[Bb]River runs so [F]sweet
[Bb]Might never roam no [F]more
[Bb]Might never roam no [F]mor[Bb]e[F]
[F]I've seen the stars falling on the [C]mountains
I've seen the [F]moon rising from the [Bb]sea
[Bb]I never ever saw a [F]sight so sweet
As that [C]woman in my arms asleep
They say that [F]honey heals the [C]body
They say that [F]music can soothe the [Bb]soul
I've learned the heart has [F]reasons
[C7]That reason can not know
[F]River runs by my window
[Bb]River runs by my [F]door
[Bb]River runs so [F]sweet
[Bb]Might never roam no [F]more
[Bb]Might never roam no [Dm]more[Am] [C] [Dm] [Am] [C] [F]
[F]I don't know where that [C]river roams
[F]But she goes around the [Bb]bend
Just might roll around the [F]great wide world
[C7]Come on home again
[F]River runs by my window
[Bb]River runs by my [F]door
[Bb]River runs so [F]sweet
[Bb]Might never roam no [F]more
[Bb]Might never roam no [F]mor[Bb]e[F]
