[Verse 1]
CI will wait by the river
CIn the light of the moon
CAt the edge of the city
CI will wait for you
FThough I can't wait forever
FSomeday I'll be dead and gone
FAnd I won't be forgiven
FFor what I've done C
[Hook]
CI will wait by the river
CI will wait by the river
CI will wait by the river
CI will wait by the river
[Verse 2]
CI will cry out to heaven
CAs it rains down on me
CI will beg for forgiveness
CGet down on my knees
FIf I can't change the weather
FMaybe I can change your mind
FIf we can't be together
FWhat's the point of life C
[Bridge]
CBaby, I didn't mean the things I said
CI don't honestly wish you were dead
CI'm a fool; I'm just a man
CIf I only could hold you again
[Verse 3]
FAnd the stars fill the river
FAs it flows into the sky
FAnd the mind leaves the body
FAnd floats higher and higher
FIf we can't be together
FI will leave this world behind
FIf I can't touch your body
FCan I touch the sky? C
[Hook]
CI will wait by the river
CI will wait by the river
CI will wait by the river
CI will wait by the river
