Dm/C

From the album "The Counterweight" (2017).

[Intro]

F C Dm Bb

[Verse 1]

F C

Are you lost? Are you tired?

Dm Bb

Is the road ahead unmade?

Are you worn?

Did the storm

Dm Bb

tear up every stone you laid?

Are you alone?

Is your home

Dm Bb

past the point of no return?

F C

Did those days just erase

Dm Bb

Everything you thought you'd learned?

[Chorus]

F C

Come on reach, you'll see

Dm Bb

The river's not that wide

F C

Now reach for me

Dm Bb

And bridge that dark divide

F C

Come on and ri - i - ise

Dm Bb

Come on and ri - i - ise

[Verse 2]

F C

Is there a voice in the air

Dm Bb

Just screaming that you're wrong?

F C

Is that noise too much to bear

Dm Bb

Drowning out your cradle song?

F C

Are you scared you'll be

Dm Dm/C Bb

Just one drop in the wave?

F C

Has your heart twisted apart

Dm Dm/C Bb

From too long being brave?

[Chorus]

F C

Come on reach, you'll see

Dm Dm/C Bb

The river's not that wide

F C

Now reach for me

Dm Dm/C Bb

And bridge that dark divide

F C

Come on and ri - i - ise

Dm Dm/C Bb

Come on and ri - i - ise

F C

Come on and ri - i - ise

Dm Dm/C Bb

Come on and ri - i - ise

[Middle 8]

And I know you're lonely

I know you're aching

Dm Bb

But that next step's the one worth taking

There's a hand, darling

There's a shoulder

And there are arms

That just want to hold you

[Chorus]

F C

Come on reach, you'll see

Dm Bb

We can sail out come high tide

F C

Now reach for me

Dm Bb

Don't let them say you never tried

F C

Come on reach, you'll see

Dm Dm/C Bb

The river's not that wide

F C

Now reach for me

Dm Dm/C Bb

And bridge that dark divide

F C

Come on and ri - i - ise

Dm Dm/C Bb

Come on and ri - i - ise

F C

Come on and ri - i - ise

Dm Dm/C Bb

Come on and ri - i - ise

[Outro]

F C

Ri- i - i - i - i - i - i - i -se Come on and ri-

And I know you're lonely, I know you're aching

Dm Bb F

i - i - i - i - i - i -i -se

But that next step's the one worth taking.
