x4
[Verse]
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Nature, nurture, heaven and home
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Sum of all and by them driven
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
To conquer every mountain shown
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
But I’ve never crossed the river
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Brave the forest, brave the stone
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Brave the icy winds and fire
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Braved and beat them on my own
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
Yet I’m helpless by the river
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Angel, angel, what have I done?
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
I faced the quakes, the wind, the fire
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
I’ve conquered country, crown and throne
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
Why can’t I cross this river?
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Angel, angel, what have I done?
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
I faced the quakes, the wind, the fire
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
I’ve conquered country, crown, and throne
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
Why can’t I cross this river?
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Pay no mind to the battles you’ve won
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
It’ll take a lot more than rage and muscle
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
Open your heart and hands my son
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
Or you’ll never make it o'er the river
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
It’ll take a lot more than words and guns
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
A whole lot more than riches and muscle
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
The hands of the many must join as one
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
And together we’ll cross the river
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
It’ll take a lot more than words and guns
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
A whole lot more than riches and muscle
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
The hands of the many must join as one
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
And together we’ll cross the river
N.C.
(This part is sung simultaneously with the un-parenthesised part)
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
(Nature, nurture, heaven and home)
It’ll take a lot more than words and guns
Em Cmaj7 Dsus2 Esus4
(Sum of all and by them driven)
A whole lot more than riches and muscle
