Intro 

G D C G D C 

G         D                G 
There's a river between us now 
                C                    G 
Some state line borders, some broken towns 
             C                       G 
Some singing sailors doing what they please 
                        D             C     
Now I'm down to selling prayers on my knees 

             G              D 
I loved your eyes, your innocence 
               C                     G  D 
In the face of bad times and where it wents 
                               C 
There's no wind on this bitter earth 
         G                D                      C 
Time and distance claim my blues for what they're worth 

    G                         D 
I'd call your name when I grew scared 
               C                G 
I'd write your home if you were there 
        C               G 
I am so broken by losing you 
                    D         C 
Only life can heal and see me through 

         G            D 
When it rains I'm all alone 
             C                G 
Confused by lonely, headed for home 
             C                      G 
Some singing sailors doing what they please 
                        D             C 
Now I'm down to selling prayers on my knees 

          G               D 
There's a river between us now 
                C                    G D 
Some state line borders, some broken town 
                                     C 
Some singing sailors doing what they please 
        G       D                     C 
Now I'm down to selling prayers on my knees 
        G       D                     C 
Now I'm down to selling prayers on my knees
