F   C   G     x2


Verse 1:
      C                                 F
Some days I can't say why I'm feeling lonely
      C                               F
Some days I am too proud to ask for help
         Am
And I stumble through the noise
     F
Trying to find some peace
      C                         G
A stranger in the crowd, I lose myself

Chorus:
             F           C
So, I walk down to the river
             F                   C
Where the troubles, they can't find me
           F             C
Let the waters there remind me
                  G
The sun will be there when we wake

         F           C
I walk down to the river
           F              C
Though I might not understand it
           F             C
It's not always as we planned it
              G
But we grow stronger when we break
             F            C  G
So, I walk down to the river
   Am    F            C G
I walk down to the river


Verse 2:
      C                            F
This raging world can get so overwhelming
    C                           F          G
Looking for a meaning when it won't make sense
        Am
In my head its getting loud
         F
Like I can't outrun this cloud
        Am                        G
No matter where I go well there I am


Chorus:
             F           C
So, I walk down to the river
             F                   C
Where the troubles, they can't find me
           F             C
Let the waters there remind me
                  G
The sun will be there when we wake

         F           C
I walk down to the river
           F              C
Though I might not understand it
           F             C
It's not always as we planned it
              G
But we grow stronger when we break
             F            C  G
So, I walk down to the river
        Am F        C G
I walk down to the river


Bridge:
          Dm
Let the calm pull me under
  F
Far beyond the thunder
   C                    G
Tell me it will all be ok
        Dm
Let the waves take all my worries
  F
Conquer them with fury
   C                     G
Give me shelter be my escape


Chorus:
             F           C
So, I walk down to the river
             F                   C
Where the troubles, they can't find me
           F             C
Let the waters there remind me
                  G
The sun will be there when we wake

         F           C
I walk down to the river
           F              C
Though I might not understand it
           F             C
It's not always as we planned it
              G
But we grow stronger when we break
             F            C  G
So, I walk down to the river
       Am F            C G
I walk down to the river (x3)
         G
To the river (x2)
  Am F            C G
I walk down oh, oh, oh
         Am F        C G
To the river oh, oh, oh
