[Verse]
A E B C#m
The coldest night came in Spring
A E B B
The final frost was laid again
A E B C#m
It draft the roof, froze the shoes, killed the flowers,
A E B B
and stole the colour from the sun.
[Chorus]
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
Burst the dams and start again.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
The will of men can't hold it in.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
As the blood beneath my skin.
F#m
Let the river in,
A B
Nature plays, nature wins.
A E B C#m [intro pattern]

[Verse]
A E B C#m
You held on to my hands like a vice,
A E B B
Turn the screw, turn them white,
A E B C#m
But there's a point there's a limit where we break,
A E B B
The current finds the quickest way.
[Chorus]
C#m
So let the river in,
A B
Burst the dams and start again.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
The will of men can't hold it in.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
As the blood beneath my skin.
F#m
Let the river in,
A B
Nature plays, nature wins.
[Bridge]
A B A B
ohohohoho, ohohoho, ohohohohho, ohohoh
A B
I feel the breaking of bricks and water,
A B
I feel the rhythm of the water, oh
A B
I feel the breaking of bricks and water,
A B
I feel the rhythm of the water, oh
[Chorus]
C#m
So let the river in,
A B
Burst the dams and start again.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
The will of men can't hold it in.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
As the blood beneath my skin.
F#m
Let the river in,
A B
Nature plays and nature wins.
[Outro]
C#m
So let the river in,
A B
Burst the dams and start again.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
The will of men can't hold it in.
C#m
Oh let the river in,
A B
As the blood beneath my skin.
F#m
Let the river in,
A B
Nature plays and nature wins.
