Tuning: G C E A
C F Am G all through verses
[Verse 1]
CI met you in F82,
over a Amcrate of beer and Gnot a few
CI cracked a can and Fso did you,
Amwe're going to change Gthe world
CThe ghetto kings of Fdownside town
Amthe estates and parks of Gour hallowed ground
CDoing anything Fthat we found,
Amand on the river Gflowed
YoCu'd take a drFink from RAmev. Jimmy JoGnes
YoCu'd cross the strFeet on the paAmth the gunman roGams
ThCrown aside anFd left to Amwaste, that Gwas you - you knew your place
WaCnder round, gFet off your faAmce, and on the river flGowed
[Chorus]
AmOn and on the river flow - Cwe are Gthe Fundertow
AmOn and on the river flow - Cwe are Gthe Fundertow
[Verse 2]
CI don't know how you made it thrFough
Amall the smoke and bGrew you do
CIt sure has left its mark on youF
Ambut you're still wiGth us today
CLife goes on and round we go F
Amand words can kill Gthese things I know
CSometimes you cut deeply so, F
Ambut on the river flGows
CYou'd set the table for barber SFweeney Todd
AmYou'd clip the wingGs of any rising god
CBut man can't live on hope aloneF,
Amit can be cut all tGhat is grown
CBroke your spirit but not your bFones
Amand on the river flGows
[Chorus]
AmOn and on the river flow - Cwe are Gthe Fundertow
AmOn and on the river flow - Cwe are Gthe Fundertow
[Verse 3]
CYou're working now - forced to tFhe race
AmI know it left a biGtter taste
CBut the rising tide had covered Fyour face
AmNothing you could dGo
CBut I still remember the day youF said
AmThat the river flowGing through my head
CWould take me far or leave me deFad
AmAnd all you said waGs true
[Outro]

Con and on and Fon and on and Amon and on and Gon
Cand on and on Fand on and on Amand on the rivGer flowed
