Judy Collins - Miracle River
CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
They say that when you get there
That's when the real magic Cstarts
Go through the Gplains of desire
Past the waterfall of Csparks
Ten Emthousand burning deserts
GWill weed the taker from the Amgiver
But it's Cless about arriving
DThan the journey to miracle CriverG  
[Verse 2]
Some live for the sparkle of the water
That will heal their aching Csouls
Turn back the Grestless hands of time
And make their broken spirits Cwhole
But Emsometimes promises of love are sweeter
GThan the visions they deAmliver
So bless the Cgood with the bad
DOn the journey to miracle CriverG  
[Chorus]
When you're Emfinally free, B7you will see
The Emdiamond's a Dchild of the Emmind
Not just a Gprize you saved from the B7jaws of fate
It was Emin your heart all the time
When you Cfinally reach your destiB7nation
EmFall down on your knees and thank your maker
For all the Ccrosses and the blessings
DOn the journey to miracle Criver
[Verse 3]
Every Gheartbeat is a piece in the puzzle
We're all here to Csolve
You can face it or Gjust turn away
But either way one day you'll Csee it all
Oh, Emwinding in the distance
GLike shimmering molten Amsilver
It will Cwash away the shadows
DOf your journey to miracle CriverG  
[Chorus]
When you're Emfinally free, B7you will see
The Emdiamond's a Dchild of the Emmind
Not just a Gprize you saved from the B7jaws of fate

Judy Collins - Miracle River

CAPO: 4th Fret

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

They say that when you get there

That's when the real magic starts

Go through the plains of desire

Past the waterfall of sparks

Ten thousand burning deserts

G Am

Will weed the taker from the giver

But it's less about arriving

D C G

Than the journey to miracle river

[Verse 2]

Some live for the sparkle of the water

That will heal their aching souls

Turn back the restless hands of time

And make their broken spirits whole

But sometimes promises of love are sweeter

G Am

Than the visions they deliver

So bless the good with the bad

D C G

On the journey to miracle river

[Chorus]

Em B7

When you're finally free, you will see

Em D Em

The diamond's a child of the mind

Not just a prize you saved from the jaws of fate

It was in your heart all the time

When you finally reach your destination

Fall down on your knees and thank your maker

For all the crosses and the blessings

D C

On the journey to miracle river

[Verse 3]

Every heartbeat is a piece in the puzzle

We're all here to solve

You can face it or just turn away

But either way one day you'll see it all

Oh, winding in the distance

G Am

Like shimmering molten silver

It will wash away the shadows

D C G

Of your journey to miracle river

[Chorus]

Em B7

When you're finally free, you will see

Em D Em

The diamond's a child of the mind

G B7

Not just a prize you saved from the jaws of fate

It was in your heart all the time

When you finally reach your destination

Fall down on your knees and thank your maker

For all the crosses and the blessings
