'Cause now with her in the womb
We can't bring her in this world, shoulda knew
To use protection 'fore I bit into your forbidden fruit
[Chorus 2]
Em G C
I've been (fuck!) a liar, been a thief, been a lover, been a cheat
D Em G C A5
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
Em G C
Well little one, I don't want to admit to something
D Em G C
If all it's gonna cause is pain, truth in my lies now are falling like the rain
A5
So let the river run
[Bridge]
Em G C
My name's (oh-oh), my name's (oh-oh) Denver (oh-oh), river run
Em G C
Just call me (oh-oh), call me (oh-oh) River (oh-oh)
N.C.
We'll let the river run
[Verse 3]
C
Always the bridesmaid, never "the bride, hey"
D5
Fuck can I say, if life was a highway
C
And deceit was an enclave, I'd be swerving in five lanes
Em D5
Speeds at a high rate like I'm slidin' on ice maybe
C
That's why I'm may have came at you sideways
D5
I can't keep my lies straight
Em
But I made you terminate my baby
Em
This love triangle left us in a wreck, tangled
C
What else can I say, it was fun for a while, bet I really woulda loved your smile
Didn't really wanna abort but fuck it, what's one more lie to tell our unborn child?
[Chorus 3]
Em G C
I've been a liar, been a thief, been a lover, been a cheat
D Em G C
All my sins need holy water, feel it washin' over me
D Em G C
Well little one, (I’m sorry) I don't want to admit to something (I fucked up)
D Em G C
If all it's gonna cause is pain, the truth in my lies now are falling like the rain
D
So let the river run (river run, river run, river run)
