Great Caesar

Take Me To The River

Great Caesar


Tom: A

Bm                     D
Nobody knows where the time goes
A                         Bm   A
Slipping away through the windows
G                          D             A
And nobody shows when they send home for you
Bm                      D
But everyone knows that tomorrow
A                             Bm         A
Could be their last day still breathing, so
G                               D        A
Help me while I still can die a penitent man


[Chorus]
Bm                           A
Take me to the river, to the sea
                 G
Make me feel the shiver over me
            Bm            A
Baby, I’m a sinner coming clean

‘Cause I’ll never know:
E
When is my god gonna come for me?
Bm                           A
Take me to the river, to the sea
                G
Make me feel the shiver over me
            Bm            A
Baby, I’m a sinner coming clean

‘Cause I’ll never know:
E
When is my god gonna come for me?


[Verse 2]
Bm                          D
Look at my hands look at my heart
A                          Bm    A
What was my plan, what was my part?
        G                D                     A
Tell me was I man with a false start, and you?
Bm                     D
All of my debts and my bloodstones
A                          Bm   A
Will they go down with me, Father?
    G                      D                     A
Oh, this is how I must go, ready for the unknown


[Chorus]
Bm                           A
Take me to the river, to the sea
                 G
Make me feel the shiver over me
            Bm            A
Baby, I’m a sinner coming clean

‘Cause I’ll never know:
E
When is my god gonna come for me?
Bm                           A
Take me to the river, to the sea
                G
Make me feel the shiver over me
            Bm            A
Baby, I’m a sinner coming clean

‘Cause I’ll never know:
E
When is my god gonna come for me?


[Bridge]
G       D             A                    Bm   A   G
I wanna know if He’ll welcome my soul into Heaven
        D                E
I wanna know if I’ll be alone


[Chorus]
(Clap)

Make me feel the shiver over me
            Bm            A
Baby, I’m a sinner coming clean
N.C.
‘Cause I’ll never know:
N.C
When is my god gonna come for me?
