Intro
Em(alt) E C(alt) E Em(alt) E Em9
Em(alt) E C(alt) E Em(alt) E C(alt) E
I see double up ahead
Am A F
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
A Em(alt) E C(alt) E
Is where the river runs red
Am A F A Em(alt)
I see double that's my trouble
Rif
E string: 0 3 5 (x4) - A string: 0 3 5 (x4)
I see trouble, up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun is where the river runs red
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots a dove
And frees an eagle instead
B7 C D(alt) Em
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
Back to Rif
I see trouble up the road
Like the things you found in love are by the way
And like to cheat on your soul
Like the best and worst of thoughts that lose control
Before you lie on your bed
B7 C D alt) Em
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Back to rif
It's more or less the things you fail to say in your way that's your trouble
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots the moon and the stars
And his double
B7 C D alt) Em
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
G Aadd9 C D(alt) Em
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
