Chris De Burgh - The Rivers Of Abraham
G Em
He walked alone, up the rocky road
D Am
To find the place, to read the stone
G F
And bring the word back, from the top of the mountain
D
Where it would be
G Em
The lightning struck, and the thunder roared
D Am
As he lifted it up, in the name of the lord
G D
And many waited for the new revelation
C D G
They are ready to go, they're going home
CHORUS:
C G
And the rivers of Abraham are running free
C G
With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny
C D C G
To the garden of Eden, and Paradise
Am C G
We will never be broken, we will never die
G Em
We cross the bridge to the silver bird
D Am
And say goodbye to the ones that we love
G F
No skies or oceans in the place we are going
D
Like seeds on the wind
G Em
The time has come, we shut the door
D Am
We are ready to go, in the name of the lord
G D
A world is waiting for a new destination
C D G
We are ready to go, we're going home
CHORUS:
C G
And the rivers of Abraham are running free
C G
With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny
C D C G
To the garden of Eden, and Paradise
Am C G
We will never be broken, we will never die
CHORUS:
C G
And the rivers of Abraham are running free
C G
With the dawn of a waking man, and destiny
C D C G
To the garden of Eden, and Paradise
Am C G
We will never be broken, we will never die
OUTRO:
C G
And the rivers of Abraham are running free
Am C G C G
We will never be broken and we will never die
