The River
Rich Mullins
Song of Solomon 4:8-9
Db Db7 Db Db7
Db
Another hour deeper in the night
Gb
Another mile farther down the road
Db
A man can drive as hard as he can drive
Gb
And never get as far as his heart was meant to go
Bbm Gb2
Sometimes when you look up in the sky
You think we might be closer than you know
Db Gb
Another tune forms in my head, more harmonies more empty words
And oh I could play these songs 'til I was dead
And never approach the sound that I once heard
I remember when I was just a kid
Gb Eb7/G
Listening in the sky, believing that the wind would stir
Db/Ab F7/A
And I know the river is deep
Gb6 Ebm7
I found out that the currents are tricky
F7no5/B Ebm7 Db/F
And I know that the river is wide
Gb2 Ab Eb7/G
And oh the currents are strong
Db/Ab F7
And I may lose every dream
Gb6 Ebm7
I dreamt that I could carry with me
Absus
But I have failed so many times
Ab Bbm7 Ab/C
But You've never let me fall down alone
Maybe she could come to Wichita, maybe we could borrow Beaker's bike
We'd let the road wind tie our hair in knots
Let the speed and the freedom untangle the lies
Maybe fear can vanish before love
Oh God don't let this love be denied
And I know the river is deep, I found out that the currents are tricky
I know the river is wide, and oh the currents are strong
And I could lose every dream I dreamt that I could carry with me
But I will reach the other side
Please don't let me have to wait too long
Db Gb Db Gb
Another hour deeper in the night, another mile farther down the road
Db Gb
Db Gb
We could be closer than you know
Db Gb
