Let the River Run
guitar chords lyrics
A D
Let the river run,
A
let all the dreamers
F#m E
wake the nation.
D F# E A
Come, the New Jerusalem.
A D
Silver cities rise,
A
the morning lights
F#m E
the streets that meet them,
D F#
and sirens call them on
E A
with a song.
F#m B
It's asking for the taking.
A
Trembling, shaking.
F#m G
Oh, my heart is aching.
E
We're coming to the edge,
E/D
running on the water,
E/C#
coming through the fog,
E/B
your sons and daughters.
C F
We the great and small
C
stand on a star
Am G F
and blaze a trail of desire
Am G F
through the dark'ning dawn.
Am D
It's asking for the taking.
C
Come run with me now,
C
the sky is the color of blue
you've never even seen
in the eyes of your...
Am Bb
Oh, my heart is aching.
G
We're coming to the edge,
G7
running on the water,
G6
coming through the fog,
G/D
your sons and daughters.

wake the nation.
