  			Dan Fogelberg - River Of Souls 
  
  
Intro: Am Dm E7  Am Dm E7  Am 
  
                 F               G 
I take my place along the shore 
      E7           Am 
And I wait for the tide  
                          F           Dm 
It seems I've passed this way before 
              Am 
In an earlier time  
  
  
                    F        G 
I hear a voice like mystery 
        E7               Am 
Blowing warm through the night  
                  F           G 
The silent moon embraces me 
        E7           Am 
And I'm drawn to her light  
  
  
                    F            G 
I follow footprints in the sand 
     E7        Am 
To a circle of stone  
            F               Dm 
Find a fire burning bright 
                     Am 
'Though I came here alone  
  
  
                   F            G 
And in the play of shadows cast 
      E7     Am 
I can dimly discern  
                         F           G 
The shapes of all who've gone before 
        E7      Am 
Calling me to return  
  

N.C.         F    G               Am 
There are no names that fit these faces  
             F                G                  Am 
There are no lines that can define these ancient spaces  
            F    G           Am 
The spirits dance across the ages  
    F           G        Am 
And melt into a river of souls  
 F     G  E7             Am 
(Ah bu day) Lo que es so mio                           What is mine 
 F     G   E7             Am 
(Ah bu de-o) Lo que es de dios                         What is God's 
 F     G  E7              Am 
(Ah bu day) Lo que es del rio                          What is the river's 
F           E7       Am 
Melt into a river of souls
