THE RIVER - Meredith Andrews
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kengus

Again a piano song, but it can be picked quite nicely on guitar as well.
The same pattern is used here and there in the song, so when you get it
going you'll pretty much know the whole song. Have fun.

VERSE1 (continue picking as above)
   A minorAm    G+G      C majorC     Fmaj7Fmaj7
Everyone is broken and in need of a Saviour
   A minorAm      G+G       C majorC        Fmaj7Fmaj7
So He came and was broken for the mocker, for the shamed
     A minorAm     G+G      C majorC        Fmaj7Fmaj7
Still our eyes are blinded by the culture, by the lies
     A minorAm      G+G       C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7
We can't see that were filthy, we're fallen and so dry...

     G+G         Am7Am7   FF

     G+G         DmDm
Come drink, come wade, come find your very life
A minorAm         C majorC     G+G
  Welcome to the river of God

Where your brokenness is washed away

     A minorAm       G/BG/B        C majorC    C/EC/E  Fmaj7Fmaj7 Gadd4
But look closer, He is right there in the midst of every fear

Living water is the offer, restoration is the call
