Mighty Rivers Lyrics

    pre>intro: the chords i have worked out here consist of two base notes only.
    Some of them are power chords (neither major nor minor, no 3rd)

    D5 55xxxx
    Bm* 75xxxx
    Asus4 55xxxx (same as d*)
    G5 35xxxx
    A5 57xxxx
    Dsus2 xx0230
    / / / / / / / /
    The intro sequence i think, is this d5 bm* asus4 g5 a5

    Verse
    Bm* d5 bm* asus4 g5 d5 d d dsus2 d
    Darlin' wake up now, i'm makin' a promise that i'm gonna keep
    Bm* d5 bm* asus4 g5 a5
    I'll never give up now, when love is a passion that can't go to sleep

    Chorus
    A5 d5 g5 a5 d5 g5 a5
    Until the mighty rivers, until the mighty oceans dry up, i'll be your man
    A5 d5 g5 a5 d5 g5 a5
    Until the mighty rivers all run dry and fade away girl you understand

    Verse
    They tell you there's no chance, for love to be stable when everything shakes
    It only took the one glance, for my heart to tremble and my soul to quake

    Repeat chorus (plus)
    A5 bm* d5 a5 d5
    Till the mighty rivers ooh mighty rivers,

    Bridge
    Bm* d5 bm* d5
    Ooh can you hear me as you run into my back
    Bm* d5 bm* a5
    And the customs never clear me, they want to put me behind black

    Repeat intro

    Verse
    Oh darlin wake uh up now, before there's no sunshine left up in the sky
    I'll never give up now, let's shed all the teardrops and let our hearts dry

    Repeat chorus (plus)
    D5 bm* d5
    Until the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers,
    Bm* d5 bm*
    The mighty rivers, the mighty rivers, the mighty rivers,

    Repeat chorus
    D5 a5 bm* g5 a5 d5
    Till the mighty rivers oooooh mighty rivers... /pre>
