Riverbed

Intro 

 Am - F - C 

Am 
It's been so loud in here 
F                        C 
It's been too many days 
Am 
I've thought of so many paths 
F                            C 
My mind is turnin' too many ways 

Am 
Hold my head 
F                   C 
Lay me down to sleep 
Am 
Lay me down 
F                       C 
It's my soul you gotta keep 

Am 
I'm cryin' out for a straight mind 
            F 
And all I'm seein' 
          C 
Oh, I'm blind 
  Am 
And I've seen too many seasons 
F                                  C 
There's just not been near enough time 



          Am          F 
Oh, speak peace to me 
                       C 
Oh, speak peace to my bones 
          Am          F 
Oh, speak peace to me 
        C 
Hold me home 

Am                        F 
I went sleepin' in a riverbed 
                          C 
But the sunshine dried it up 
Am              F 
I've been, oh I've been lookin' for fruit 
                    C 
But the trees are all dead 

I ain't been fed 
         Am 
I'm a dead man walkin' 
       F 
I'm a dead man walkin' 
           C 
Oh it's a dead tongue talkin' 



Am - F - C 
Ooo 



Am            F 
Hold my head 
               C 
Lay me down to sleep 
Am           F 
Lay me down 
                        C 
It's my soul you gotta keep 

             Am 
'Cause I've heard too much 
         F 
And I've run too far away 
               C 
Too many times
