 Boat on the River 
  
 Verse 1: 
 (Dm)Take me down to my boat on the river 
 I (C)need to go down, I (A)need to come down 
 (Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river 
 And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore 
  
 Verse 2: 
 (Dm)Time stands still as I gaze in her waters 
 She (C)eases me down, (A)touching me gently 
 With the (Dm)waters that flow past my boat on the river 
 So (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore 
  
 Chorus 1: 
 Oh the (C)river is wide 
 The river it touches my (Dm)life 
 like the waves on the (G)sand 
 And (Gm)all roads lead to (Dm)tranquility base 
 Where the (E)frown on my face (A)disappears 
 (Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river 
 And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore        (instr.) 
  
 Chorus 2: 
 Oh the (C)river is deep 
 The river it touches my (Dm)life 
 like the waves on the (G)sand 
 And (Gm)all roads lead to (Dm)tranquility base 
 Where the (E)frown on my face (A)disappears 
 (Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river 
 And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore 
 And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore 
 And (A)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore....   (DmDmDm A-Dm)
