The River Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Hanna Feat Julia

[INTRO]

[C] [Em] [Am] [G]

[VERSE]

The ri[C]ver’s so silent to[Em]night
It fl[Am]ows and follows its w[G]ay
The mo[F]on shines bright and g[C]rass alights
In co[G]lors of silver and gr[G]ey

My tho[C]ughts float away with the r[Em]iver
To a t[Am]ime of laughter and j[G]oy
Not f[F]ar a waterfall’s p[F]urling
I’m afr[G]aid that they might f[C]all

[REFRAIN]

I r[C]emember we stood on the cros[Am]sroads, not so long a[G]go [F]
Beh[C]ind us our dreams were dy[Am]ing
And we kn[F]ew we had to [C]go

[VERSE]

I f[C]ind myself lost in the me[Em]mories
Of flo[Am]wers and clear blue sk[G]ies
Ge[F]ntly dimmed by shi[C]vering trees
A su[G]n that never d[C]ies

I d[C]o not recall what ha[Em]ppened
The bre[Am]eze must have grown to a st[G]orm
T[F]rees were not shivering but br[C]eaking
And c[G]arried us frightened al[C]ong

[REFRAIN]

I r[C]emember we stood on the cros[Am]sroads, not so long a[G]go [F]
Beh[C]ind us our dreams were dy[Am]ing
And we kn[F]ew we had to [C]go

[VERSE]

I’m am[C]azed by this familiar be[Em]auty
No[Am]thing was really dest[G]royed
But the eas[F]iness of our du[C]ty
To la[G]ugh and live in j[C]oy

[REFRAIN]

I r[C]emember we stood on the cros[Am]sroads, not so long a[G]go [F]
Beh[C]ind us our dreams were dy[Am]ing
And we kn[F]ew we had to [C]go

D[C]own one of the paths sub[Am]mitted
Leading to unknown fie[G]lds [F]
Though [C]I, to the one way com[Am]mitted
Was st[F]ill afraid to le[C]ave

[VERSE]

The ri[C]ver’s so silent to[Em]night
It fl[Am]ows and follows its w[G]ay
And li[F]kewise I’ve followed m[C]y path
That n[G]ow brought me back to t[C]hee

H[C]ope begins to sp[Em]read
I t[Am]hink the sun must r[G]ise
But da[F]ncing in dark and sha[C]dow
A mi[G]llion firefl[C]ies

Enlig[C]hten the field and the ri[Em]ver
In o[Am]ld familiar w[G]ise
The mo[F]on so still shines br[C]ight
And re[G]flects in tears in my e[C]yes.
