Chords with lyrics
The Dutchess and the Duke: The River
C majorC A minorAm FF C majorC
I went down to the river, I jumped right in and I drowned
C majorC A minorAm DmDm G+G
But there was nobody to see me so I was never found
DmDm A minorAm FF G+G
Nobody to come and call out my name and drag back my body to the ground
FF G+G A minorAm G+G
And that's how I always remember the day...
C majorC A minorAm FF C majorC
I went out to desert I laid right down and died
C majorC A minorAm DmDm G+G
Wolves were eating my fingers and the vultures were coming for my eyes
DmDm A minorAm FF G+G
With scorpions crawling all over my face my body was covered with flies
FF G+G A minorAm G+G
And that's how I always remember the day...
C majorC A minorAm DmDm G+G
That I was born... born... born... born
E minorEm A minorAm
And every time the words still ring
E minorEm A minorAm
And all the scars still feel the same
FF
And all the words don't mean a thing
F minorFm
I know the pain will start again
E minorEm A minorAm
If there's a darkness in my soul
E minorEm A minorAm
When will the darkness have a name
FF
I'm moving faster and faster away
F minorFm
I'm moving faster and faster away
C majorC
From the day I was born.
(Guitar solo, play verse chords)
C majorC A minorAm FF C majorC
I went up to the mountain, I buried myself in a cave
C majorC A minorAm DmDm G+G
I made my peace with the silence, and I knew I would not be saved
DmDm A minorAm FF G+G
I heard not a word nor whisper, and I quietly faded away
FF G+G A minorAm G+G
And that's how I always remember the day...
C majorC A minorAm DmDm G+G
That I was born... born... born... born
E minorEm A minorAm
And all the faces start to fade,
E minorEm A minorAm
All the mistakes that I have made
FF
And now the clouds can melt away
F minorFm
And now the sun can shine again
E minorEm A minorAm
If there's a darkness in my soul
E minorEm A minorAm
I?ll let the darkness walk with me
FF
I'm moving faster and faster away
F minorFm
I'm moving faster and faster away
C majorC
From the day I was born.
