"The River Rise" 
C 
Oh the river rise 
C 
And it's a mile high 
C 
Is this worth tryin' 
C 
Is this worth tryin' 
C             D  F    
Cause I could fall...... 
C 
Like a tear 
C 
Well there's nothing else I can do 


C 
When I'm not alone 
C 
Nothings beside me 
C 
What one eye sees 
C 
The other's blind in 
C            D  F  
Well I could fall 
C 
As if I was young 
C 
With a lifetime to think of you 

Fire one for losing 
And two for hiding 
Keep river moving 
Movin' right by me 
I could fall 
And there's nothin' else I can do 

Ah the river rise 
And it's a mile high 
Has this world turned 
Has this world tried 
Cause I could fall 
Like a tear 
well there's nothin' else I can do 

Up on the river rise 
She's a mile high
