[Intro]
D C G x2

[Verse]
     D
Shadow let go
D
There's something you should know
D
I just found my new direction
D
And I hope you like the key
              G
Like the air that led me to it
               C
She's the wind that sucked me through it
            D
She's a river and she's turning there in front of me
           D
Stand back - get back
D
She'll paint your blue skies black
D
She gives bullet proof protection
D
She got a resurrection feel
                G
When I'm scared, and 'bout to lose
                       C
She gives me travelling shoes
             D
She's a river and she's turning there in front of me

[Chorus]
               Em
And I go blind
                    G
Wasting my time
                                           D C
While the rivers in front of me
G                                      D C G
That's where I'm goin' to be

[Verse]
           D
Shine on, get on
D
Twilight from dusk to dawn
D
She's the spirit of creation
D
She's the last chance guarantee
           G
Got a myriad of poses
            C
Sweet miracles and roses
             D
She's a river and she's turning in front of me

[Chorus]
               Em
And I go blind
                    G
Wasting my time
                                          D  C
While the rivers in front of me
G                                      D C G
That's where I'm goin' to be

D G D

[Chorus]
                       Em
'Cause when I find
                   G
My state of mind
                                  D
The river's in front of me

[Bridge]
D
They say that every heaven's got a thousand rooms
D
So take me on that freedom ride
D
My heart is like a hunter's in the silent moon
D
My nerves just feel electrified
G
Meet me on the staircase
G
Outside a darkened room
G
Light me like a naked flame
D
The voice of Mother Nature states
D
All things must pass
D
And nothing can remain
Em
They say that every heaven's got a thousand rooms
G                                            D C G
So take me on that freedom ride

D
You raise me like a building to the very top
C                                  G
Rush me to the end of time
D
You fill me full of danger
D
You give me future shock
C                                        G
Then you leave me wasted dying

D G D

[Chorus]
               Em
And I go blind
                    G
Wasting my time
                                   D
The river's in front of me

[Outro]
D C G x2
