capo fret 2
A D A
i laid down by the rivers edge
A D A
i laid down wondering where it led
A D A
i laid down by the rivers edge
F#m D A
and i woke up in a river bed
A D A
there were flowers in my hair
A D A
river flowers floating everywhere
A D A
and all the fishes came and kissed my feet
F#m D A
dear old fishes , they said to me
C#m F#m
they said oh , we could love you
D A
but we are not yet what you want
C#m F#m
because oh , anyone could love you
D A
youve got to find where you belong
A D A
all my needles , they were gone so fast
A D A
not a needle left on a branch
A D A
i grew weaker and the river strong
F#m D A
i said , hey fishes but the fish were gone
A D A
now the boulders i know they heard me cry
A D A
but they were stone - faced and they stood aside
A D A
so i went on at the rivers pace
F#m D A
with my eyes closed , i thought i heard them say
C#m F#m
they said oh , we could love you
D A
but we are not yet what you want
C#m F#m
because oh , we would only crush you
D A
youve got to find where you belong
C#m D
how does it feel
F#m
to be so certain
D
without question
A
of your purpose
F#m
your position
D
of your place
A
of your home?
D
of your place
E
of your home
C#m C#m
you cannot catch the river though
D A
it makes you think you can
C#m C#m
it trickles through your fingers
D A
while you hold it in your hands
D
just like I'am
A
just like I'am
D
just like I'am
A
just like I'am
