Biography:
Wild Rivers is an indie folk band based in Toronto, Ontario. The group, formed in 2015, was born out of Devan and Khalid, the duo that has experienced much success since they first met in Kingston in 2012. Devan Glover and Khalid Yassein have perfected their special musical chemistry, and continue making folk music together. The lead single, No Ribbons, from their debut EP This Town, enjoyed national radio airplay and led to the two being voted Toronto's Best New Artist in the 2015 CBC Searchlight contest.

Wild Rivers – Wandering Child

Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xT4XygaOOI
Tunings: _D_A_D_E_A_d_ or _E_A_D_G_B_e_
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Chords: D | 0 0 0 2 0 0 | | x x 0 2 3 2 |
G | 0 2 0 3 2 0 | | 3 2 0 0 0 3 |
Bm | x 2 0 2 2 0 | | x 2 4 4 3 2 |
A | x 0 2 0 0 2 | | x 0 2 2 2 0 |

The first tuning is the original one. They use it for breaking the chords in the intro,
first verse and some other parts of the song (into the picking pattern which is btw a little tricky).
So, who wants to play the song like the band does, first tuning and the set of chords are
the right ones (see for yourselves in the video), and more fun to play. But, who doesn’t want to
change the tuning, the standard tuning is just fine and sounds the same.
D G D G
D G D G
I wish I met you, further along
D G D G
Gave you my older heart, still and strong
Bm G D
But I wouldn't have a fire like I do today
G D
Oooh it burns for you babe
A Bm G
Oooh, you got nothing on my tendency to be led astray
A Bm D G
Oooh, it took a blindside hit to show me the right of way
Bm G D
When your footsteps conquer the streets
Bm G D
From your eyes to the soles of your feet
Bm G D A Bm
May my body and heart remain wi____ld
G A D G
For I'm a wandering child
D G D G D G
D G D G
I could keep an arms length, so I don't fall
D G D G
I never learned to punch with my back against the wall
Bm G D G
Oh no, I gotta let it go
D G D G
And I got a feeling, deep in my bones
D G D G
I can't sit still when there's a space up in the road
Bm G D
There's a fire coming on you in your lane
G D
And it burns for you babe
A Bm G
Oooh, you got nothing on my tendency to be led astray
A Bm D G
Oooh, it took a blindside hit to show me the right of way
Bm G D
When your footsteps conquer the streets
Bm G D
From your eyes to the soles of your feet
Bm G D A Bm
May my body and heart remain wi____ld
G A D G
For I'm a wandering child
D G D G D G
D G
And I hope to God the time ain't wrong
D G
And I hope to God the time ain't wrong
Bm G D G
Cause I can't be hanging on like this for long
D G
And I hope to God the time ain't wrong
D G
And I hope to God the time ain't wrong
Bm G D G
Cause I can't be hanging on like this for long
D G
And I hope to God the time ain't wrong
D G
And I hope to God the time ain't wrong
Bm G D G
Cause I can't be hanging on like this for long
Bm G D
Cause I can't be hanging on like this for long

And for those who want to try breaking the chords, a little help - my attempt
on the intro and beginning of the verse (didn’t have time for the whole thing):
