To The River (John Mellencamp)
[Intro]
G G F F G G F F
[Verse]
G
There are masters and slaves, we are sunlight and shadow
F G
All roads to the river
G
I am lost, I am saved, I'm beloved and betrayed
F G
All roads to the river
[Chorus]
G F G
And the river runs wide, the river runs deep (runs deep)
F G
And I spit in the eye of safe company
G F G
When I dive right down (right down) to the undertow (undertow)
F C G
Well, the deeper I drown...oh, the higher I'll go
[Instrumental]
G G F F G G F F
[Verse]
G
I am whispering dreams, I am howling revolutions
F G
All roads to the river
G
I am Valentine sweet and I live in this nightmare,
F G
All roads to the river
[Chorus]
G F G
And the river runs wide, the river runs deep (runs deep)
F G
And I spit in the eye of safe company
G F G
When I dive right down (right down) to the undertow (undertow)
F C G
Well, the deeper I drown...oh, the higher I'll go
[Instrumental]
G G F F G G F F [stop for one full count]
G G F F
[Verse]
G
This is nothing like we planned, that's the way it's always been
F G
All roads to the river
G
I have hated, I have loved, I have prayed, I have sinned
F G
All roads to the river
[Chorus]
G F G
And the river runs wide, the river runs deep (runs deep)
F G
And I spit in the eye of safe company
G F G
When I dive right down (right down) to the undertow (undertow)
F C G
Well, the deeper I drown...oh, the higher I'll go
