Verse 1:
G                              C
If you've been thinking you're all that you've got,

D                        G
Then don't feel alone anymore.

                          C
When we're together, then you've got a lot,

       D                              G      G7
'Cause I am the river and you are the shore.


Chorus A:
            C      D       G            D     C    G
And it goes on and on, oh, watching the river run,

C           G            Am                D
Further and further from things that we've done,

G                   G7
Leaving them one by one.

C                  D    G                  E
And we have just begun, watching the river run.

Am                      D
Listening, learning and yearning to

            G
Run, river, run.

------------

Verse 2:
Winding and swirling and dancing along,
We pass by the old willow tree
Where lovers caress as we sing of our song,
Twisting together when we greet the sea.

------------

Repeat Chorus A.

------------

Chorus B:  (slight difference)
            C      D       G            D     C    G
And it goes on and on, oh, watching the river run,

C           G            Am                D
Further and further from things that we've done,

G                   G7
Leaving them one by one.

C                  D    B                  Em
And we have just begun, watching the river run.

Am                      D
Listening, learning and yearning to

            G
Run, river, run.
