Verse 1:
       Bb     Eb     Bb
I fall into you, get pulled along
                 Eb  F
Dragged out to sea before too long
      Bb        Eb    Gm          Eb
Funny how it’s me who made you strong
            Bb   F            Bb
You are the river and I’m the rain

                     Eb         Bb
You’ll flood your banks, you’ll take out towns
        Eb          F
I dove in, swearing I won’t drown
   Bb   Eb          Gm          Eb
If only I could just slow you down

You are the river, and I’m the rain


Chorus:
           Gm            Eb
We’re just too much now, too much now
  Bb                  F
I guess we’re both to blame

No I don’t know how, I don’t know how to stay away…

I never know just when to stop

You swell with pride till your levees drop
  Bb       Eb   Gm        Eb
A hurricane, oh all was lost

You are the river and I’m the rain

Try to wish us away, Love

Oh but I know better
  Ebm             Bb
We’re a perfect storm

It’s just how we’re made

I fall, you run…

You’re the river and I am the rain
            Bb    Eb           Bb
You are the river and I am the rain
