INTRO: F5 F5 Db5 Db5
VERSE 1
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
I've been looking at the past hmmm
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
I've wasted too much time on things that won't last
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
I've built a kingdom out of rubble and sand,
Ab5 Eb5 F5
but I don't, I don't want to hold onto it all
BRIDGE:
Db5
I'm ready for the river to run,
Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5
and wash it away
Chorus:
Ab5 Eb5 F5 Db5
I'm singin' come sweet water, cleanse my soul,
Ab5 Eb5 F5 Db5
shower me and make me whole
Ab5 Eb5 F5 Db5
consume me with a healing flood
Bb5 Eb5 Eb5 break
leave no traces of the man that I was
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
before the river came
VERSE 2:
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
There's no freedom in the chains, hmmm
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
they'll hold you captive to the guilt of your stains
F5 F5 Db5 Db5
one drop of water brings an ocean of change
Ab5 Eb5 F5
and I long, I long to move on from it all
REPEAT BRIDGE AND Chorus
SECOND BRIDGE:
F5 Bb5 Eb5 Ab5
Baptize and then bury me until only You remain (come and rescue)
F5 Bb5 Eb5 Bb5 Ab5
I don't wanna be the man that I was, long before the river came.
