Rivers Run Karine Polwart
Words & Music: Karine Polwart#
Standard Tuning- No capo
[D]This weary Earth w[Dsus4]e walk upo[D]n
[D]She will endure when we are g[A]one
While kingdoms [Bm]come and k[A]ingdoms [D]go
Rivers run and r[A]ivers f[D]low
[D]You know I don't b[Dsus4]elieve it'[D]s true
[D]That in this world there's no[A]thing new
For darling y[Bm]ou have j[A]ust be[D]gun
Rivers flow and r[A]ivers r[D]un
CHORUS:
[Bm]And if those [A]river[D]s shou[A]ld ever run d[G]ry
[Bm]Somewhere the [D]rain wil[A]l still[Fm] fa[-]-l[G]l,
Will still[Fm] fa[-]-l[G]l from the [D]sky
[D]When I'm beguiled [Dsus4]by the fea[D]r
[D]That darker days are drawing [A]near
My darling, [Bm]you sed[A]uce the [D]sun
Rivers flow and r[A]ivers r[D]un
CHORUS
And if those rivers should ever run dry
Somewhere the rain will still fall,
Will still fall from the sky
[D]This wounded Eart[Dsus4]h we walk [D]upon
[D]She will endure when we are g[A]one
But still I [Bm]pray that y[A]ou may k[D]now
How rivers run and r[A]ivers f[D]low
CHORUS
And if those rivers should ever run dry
Somewhere the rain will still fall,
Will still fall from the sky
[D]So I cross my heart and hope to live
[D]Just long enough that I can give
[D]It all to you, my darling one
[D]Rivers flow and rivers r[Bm]un
[A]my darling o[D]ne
[D]Rivers flow and r[A]ivers r[D]un
