A Thousand Rivers

Intro 
N.C. 
Oh river, no not another river 

Dm 


 
Dm               E7 
Hey what are you doing? 
Am                       Dm 
Comin’ ‘round here in disgrace 
Dm              E7 
With nothing to show 
Am                                Dm 
But your misery plastered on your face 
Dm                E7 
Your hatred flows out 
Am                       Dm 
A thousand rivers into a vase 
Dm                 E7 
There’s nowhere to go 
Am                               Dm 
So, you try to pull them in your place 


Dm      G 
Blaming life 
Dm         G 
Convicting who? 
Dm      G 
Eternal judge 
Am 
It’s not you 



Dm               E7 
Hey what are you doing? 
Am                           Dm 
Tryin’ to write your history page 
Dm              E7 
With nothing to show 
Am                                Dm 
As their courage smudges out your name 
Dm                E7 
Your hatred flows out 
Am                       Dm 
A thousand rivers into a vase 
Dm                 E7 
There’s nowhere to go 



N.C 
And you could put that gun away 
N.C 
And you could simply walk away 
N.C 
And you could do most anything 
N.C 
Today 



Dm               E7 
Hey what are you doing? 
Am                       Dm 
Come ‘round here another day 
Dm             E7 
Your hatred in doubt 
Am                            Dm 
A thousand rivers could wash away 


Dm      G 
Blaming life 
Dm         G 
Convicting who? 
Dm      G 
Eternal judge 
Am 
It’s not you
