[Verse 1]
The rGiver is my sG/Bavior
Cause she uCsed to be a clGoud
She's hGappy just to lay tG/Bhere
When she Dsus4used to be so prDoud
And eGven when she dG/Bries up a thoCusand years from nGow
I'll lGay myself beEmside her and cDall her name out loGud
[Verse 2]
The rGiver is my sG/Bavior
The only oCne I'll ever nGeed
Wash my hGead when I've been siG/Bnning
Wash my kDsus4nuckles when they blDeed
ProtGect me from my neG/Bighbor
All this jeCalousy and grGeed
Take the boGdy to the dEmelta
Hide the wDeapon in the weGeds
[Chorus]
But now I'm tAm7ired and a liCttle bit confused
Regarding what I mGeant to do and what I dDid
The men I've hAm7ired they all sCeem to be afraid of me
They tGurn their eyes away from me like kDids
[Verse 3]
The riGver hears my seG/Bcrets
Things I canCnot tell a sGoul
Like the chGildren that I've orG/Bphaned
And the fDsus4ortune that I sDtole
The neGighbor who asked queG/Bstions
Until he wCashed up on the sGhore
But I've dGone the law some faEmvors
So nDobody has to kGnow
[Chorus]
Now I'm tiredAm7 and I just cCan't get to sleep
I've been a wGolf among these sheep for all my lDife
The lake of Am7fire it coCnsumes me in my dreams
And last niGght I woke up screaming at my wDife
[Verse 4]
The rGiver is my sG/Bavior
She's ruCnning to the sGea
And to reGach her desG/Btination
Is to sDsus4imply cease to Dbe
And runGning until you're nG/Bothing
Sounds a lCot like being fGree
So I'll laGy myself inside hEmer
And I'll lDet her carry Gme
