[Intro]

Eadd9 E E6 Eadd9 E E6

[Verse 1]

Eadd9 E E6

Leading me through all the way back home

Eadd9 E E6

Breaking with the self I was before

Now that times have changed

B7sus2 Eadd9 E E6

My memories are old, much too old

[Verse 2]

Eadd9 E E6

Sitting here, watching the river flow

Eadd9 E E6

If only you and I could say hello

Listening to the sound of silence

B7sus2 Eadd9 E E6

But you don't hear it anymore

[Chorus]

Cmaj7 Dsus2 Eadd9 E

You should have told me that it got too rough

Cmaj7 Dsus2 Am B E

I gave you everything but maybe everything was not enough

A B E

All I have seen, I can't tell you anymore

A B

All I have been, so many things that we don't know

Dbm

Caught in the tide of time

If only one last wish was left

F#m7 E Dsus2 Dm9 Dsus2 Dm9

Everyone should reap what he has sown

Eadd9 E E6 Eadd9 E E6

[Verse 3]

Eadd9 E E6

The flowing water takes my soul away

Eadd9 E E6

A last farewell with nothing more to say

But behind the rippling waves I will

B7sus2 Eadd9 E E6

Become part of the river once again

[Verse 4]

Eadd9 E E6

So it's time for me to go back on my own

Eadd9 E E6

My new self joins the unity and keeps the river flow

This is not the right time

B7sus2 Eadd9 E E6

Our path will cross and we will meet again

[Chorus]

Cmaj7 Dsus2 Eadd9 E

You should have told me that it got too rough

Cmaj7 Dsus2 Am B E

You asked for everything but maybe everything was not enough

A B E

All I have seen, I can't tell you anymore

A B

All I have been, so many things that we don't know

Dbm

Caught in the tide of time

If only one last wish was left

F#m7 E Dsus2 Dm9 Dsus2 Dm9

Everyone should reap what he has sown

[Outro verses]

Em A F#m7

All divine and multicolored in many different ways

Enthralled to see the other side

Em A D

I'm aware of all the beauty, from now on

Em A F#m7

All life reflected in the water, full of light

Moving gently far away

Em A D

All this light will still surround me, from now on

C D C D C

Dsus2 D9 Dsus2 D9 Dsus2 D9 Dsus2 D9

Em A F#m7

All divine and multicolored in many different ways

Enthralled to see the other side

Em A D

I'm aware of all the beauty, from now on

Em A F#m7

All life reflected in the water, full of light

Moving gently far away

Em A D

This amazing light will still surround me, from now on.
