Lyrics

Another River
©2023 Lowry Olafson

Intro: ||G |D |C |D |G |D |C |C ||

G G/F# Em Em/D C G
This river keeps on flowing, cuts a canyon through these hills
G G/F# Em Em/D C D
Over boulders big as houses, flows just where it will.
Em7 D/F# G C
It never stops on its journey to the sea.
G G/F# Em Em/D
I thought that we'd be like that river,
C D G
Go forever, you and me.

Oh but no, we didn't make it.
Now there's nothing left to say.
Time to find another river, time to find another way
When there's no way back, every step can set you free.
Get your feet back on the bank
And thank the Lord for gravity.

Chorus:
C G
I need another river, deep and strong
D G
A gentle heart that rolls along
C Em
Another river to call my own
D G
To help me find my way back home.

||G |D |C |D |G |D |C |C ||

So I made a list of all the things
I missed about you
I lit it with a match like someone told me I should do
I watched it burn and turn to ashes in the wind
And blessed it for the lessons I guess I had to learn.

Chorus
F E
Bridge: I’m not looking for someone to come and save me
Am Am/G D
Water’s all you need to wash you clean.

Chorus
