Verse 1
(C major) All that I (G6) have is a (F minoraj7) river
The river (A minor) is always my (E7) home
Lord, (C major) take me away (F minoraj7)
For I (A minor) just cannot (F minoraj7) stay
Or I'll (C major) sink in my (D minor6) skin and my (F major) bones

Chorus 1
The water (C major) sustains (G6) me without (C major) even (F major) trying
The water (C major) can't (G6) drown me, I'm (A minor) done
With my (F minoraj7) dy (C major) ing
(C major) (C major) (C major)
Verse 2
Please (C major) help me (G6) build a small (F minoraj7) boat
(A minor) One that'll ride on the flow (E7)
Where the river (C major) runs (F minoraj7) deep
And the larger (A minor) fish (F minoraj7) creep
I'm (C major) glad of what (D minor6) keeps me a (F minoraj7) float

Verse 3
Now (C major) deeper the (G6) water I (F minoraj7) sail
And (A minor) faster the current I'm (E7) in
That each (C major) night brings the (F minoraj7) stars
And the (A minor) song in my (F minoraj7) heart
Is a (C major) tune for the (D minor6) journeyman's (F major) tale
Chorus 3
The water (C major) sustains (G6) me without (C major) even (F major) trying
The water (C major) can't (G6) drown me, I'm (A minor) done

Bridge 1
Now the land (E7) that I knew is a dream (A minor)
And the line (E7) on the distance grows (A minor) faint
So (C major) wide is my (D minor) river
The horizon (C major) a (D minor) sliver
The artist (C major) has (G major) run out of (F major) paint
(F major) (F major) (F major)
Verse 4
Where the blue (C major) of the sea (G6) meets the (F major) sky
And the big (A minor) yellow sun leads me (E7) home
I'm (C major) everywhere (F minoraj7) now
The way (A minor) is a vow (F minoraj7)
To the (C major) wind of each (D minor6) breath by and (F major) by
