[verse]
F C G
Sweet May morning
F G Am F
Lying in bed with nothing to say
F C G
We'll pretend all we wanna
Am
Yeah, tomorrow I'll be on my way
F C G
Sing me a river
F G Am F
Go easy on me, I'm not doing too well
F C G
Do you hate me, honey
Am
As much as I hate myself?
F C G
Heart like a levee
F G Am F
I swing for the mountains in double-time
F C G
Is it too heavy, honey?
Am
Did I carry my piece of the fire?
[chorus]
G Am F
Standing in the wake with the sky still changing
G Am F
What's it going to take to keep you missing
G Am F
the rambling rake with a heart of obsidian?
G Am F
Standing in the wake with the sky still changing
[verse]
F C G
Sing me a river
F G Am F
I'm a peach tree jumper with rain in my shoes
F C G
If you let me, honey
Am
I'll set the world on fire for you
F C G
Sing me a summer
F G Am F
Oh, that Cincinnati moon - like a wheel in the sky
F C G
shows two roads, honey
Am
Tell me which one leads to mine?
F C G
Sing, little sister
F G Am F
Be patient with me when I don't have a rhyme
F C G
Will you grieve me, honey?
Am
Did I give you a reason to try?
[chorus]
G Am F
Standing in the wake with the sky still changing
G Am F
What's it going to take to keep you from taking this so
G Am F
serious? I know the dead are raging
G Am F
Standing in the wake - yes I've seen the changes
[verse]
F C G
Heart like a levee
F G Am F
I swing for the mountains in double-time
F C G
Do you hear me running?
Am
Did I carry my piece of the fire?
