Verse 1
G
C
I met you in 82,
Em
D
over a crate of beer and not a few
G
C
I cracked a can and so did you,
Em
D
we're gonna change the world
G
C
The ghetto kings of downside town
Em
the estates and parks,
D
our hallowed ground
G
C
Doing anything that we found,
Em
D
and on the river flowed
Pre-chorus 1
G
C
You'd take a drink
Em
D
from the Reverend Jimmy Jones
G
C
Yeah, you'd cross the street
Em
D
on the path the gunman roams
G
C
Thrown aside and left to waste,
Em
D
that was you, you knew your place
G
C
Wander round, get off your face,
Em
D
and on the river flowed
Chorus 1

And on and on the river flows
G
D
C
We the undertow

Verse 2
G
C
Oh, I don't know how you made it through
Em
D
all the smoke and brew you do
G
C
But It sure has left its mark on you,
Em
D
but you're still with us today
G
C
Life goes on and round we go
Em
D
and words can kill the things I know
G
C
Often you cut me deeply so,
Em
D
but on the river flows
Pre-chorus 2
G
C
And you'd set the table
Em
D
for the barber Sweeney Todd, yeah
G
C
Em
D
You'd clip the wings off of any rising god
G
C
Man can't live on hope alone,
Em
D
it can be cut, all that is grown
G
C
Broke your spirit but not your bones,
Em
D
and on the the river flows
Chorus 2
Em
And on and on the river flows
G
D
C
We the undertow
Em
On and on the river flows
G

We the undertow

Bridge 1
A
You're working now, you're forced to race
I know it left a bitter taste
But the rising tide has covered your face
And there's nothing you can do
A
But I still remember the day you said
That the river flowing through my head
Would take me so far or leave me dead
Outro 1
And all you said was true
G
C
