[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em G6* Asus2sus4 Aadd9
It took forever and a day for the canyons and coasts to erode away
Em G6* Asus4 A
By the weight of the ocean's cyclical motion they swayed
Em G6* Asus2sus4 Aadd9
And though the eons may pass as slow as the sands of an hourglass
Em G6* Asus4* A
Every grain that we've counted claims that even the mountains can change
[Chorus]
G Let it come down, let it come dowFn
Let it make in you a new riveGr!
Let it come down, let it come dowFn
Let it make in youC a new riveEmr!
[Interlude 1]
Em Bm Asus2sus4 A
[Verse 2]
Em I know the G6winds from the south have the Asus2waves riled up like a Ahungry mouth
Em G6* Asus4 A
And your stomach goes hollow at the thought that it could swallow you whole
Em Well, it'll G6rain for forty days and nights, and Asus2nothing you do can slow the Arising tides
But the Emriver takes her shape from every G6tempest she abides
And like A7sus2her, you'll be made Asus2new again
[Interlude 2]
G69 Bm Asus2sus4 A

Let it make in you a new river!
Let it come down, let it come dowFn
Let it make in youC/G a new riveGr!
Let it come down, let it come dowFn
Let it make in youC/G a new riveGr!
G Gadd11 G Gadd11 F C/G x2
