[Verse 1]
Am7 Am7*
The windows turned to fishbowls
D The city to seas
G C* Cmaj7 Cmaj7/B-thing
The cars were drowning underneath your feet
Am7 Am7*
The children were swimming
D From the top of the trees
G C* Cmaj7 Cmaj7/B-thing
Crowds of umbrellas were staring in misbelief
Am7 Am7*
Well mary kept sewing
D Holding on to her TV
G C* Cmaj7 Cmaj7/B-thing
Even if the water was rising past her knees
[Chorus]
Am7 Am7*
Here comes the river
D Coming on strong
G C* Cmaj7 Cmaj7/B-thing
And you can't keep your head above these troubled waters
Am7 Am7*
Here comes the river
D Over the flames
G Sometimes you got to burn to keep the sCtorm away
Am7 Sometimes
D Sometimes you got to just
[Interlude]

Am7 Nobody told you that
D It was going to be this hard
G Something's been building beChind your eyes
Am7 You lost what you hold onto
D You're losing control
G There ain't any words in this world that's gonna cure Cthis pain
Am7Sometimes Dit's going to fall down on your Gshoulders
But you're going to Cstand through it all
[Repeat Chorus]

And you can't keep your head above these troubled waters
Am7 Am7*
Here comes the river
D Over the flames
G Sometimes you got to burn to keep the sCtorm away
Am7 Sometimes
D Sometimes you got to just
