Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: G

Difficulty: Intermediate

Verse 1:
G                               E
How come we can't talk to each other any more?
Am            D7               G
Why can't you see I'm changing too?
G                             E
We've got by far too long to end it feeling wrong
Am                              D
And I still share too much with you

Chorus 1:
Em                          D
Just one great river always flowing to the sea
Em                       D
One single river rolling in eternity
G                             E
Two nations in this land that lies along its shore
Am            D             G
But just one river rolling free.

Verse 2:
G                           E
How come you shut me out as if I wasn't there
Am              D7                G
What's this new bitterness you've found?
G                            E
However wronged you were, however strong it hurt
Am                        D
It wasn't me who held you down.

Chorus 2:
Em                          D
Just one great river always flowing to the sea
Em                       D
One single river rolling in eternity
G                             E
Two nations in this land that lies along its shore
Am            D             G
But just one river rolling free.

Instrumental:

Verse 3:
G                            E
Why can't you understand I'm glad you're standing proud
Am         D7              G
I know you made it on your own
G                                   E
But in this new pride you've earned, I thought you might have learned
Am                           D
That you don't have to stand alone

Chorus 3:
Em                           D
Lonely northern river always flowing to the sea
Em                       D
One single river rolling in eternity
G                             E
Two nations in this land that lies along its shore
Am           D             G
But just one river rolling free.
