Tom: C

Fmaj7            G
Why not just go now?
         Am             Fmaj7
Oh, you never wanted to stay
     Fmaj7                G
I've waited here for a while now
          Am         Fmaj7
But you never came my way
      Fmaj7           G
The flowers love to look at you
            Am                     Fmaj7
And I wish you'd say the same about me
Fmaj7                  G
How could you feel nothing
            Am            Fmaj7
When the water's cold and deep?


[Chorus]
Fmaj7       G       Am
Oh, welcome to the river
               C                  Fmaj7
No sense in wasting your precious time
 Fmaj7                       G       Am
And oh, you'll think it's getting clearer
                       C
But she'll break your breath here
                  G
She'll take your mind

Am G C Fmaj7 G


[Verse 2]
Fmaj7           G
Did you ever notice?
           Am           Fmaj7
'Cause I nеver read the signs
    Fmaj7              G
Thе frame was out of focus
           Am          Fmaj7
When our fingers intertwined


[Chorus]
Fmaj7       G       Am
Oh, welcome to the river
               C                  Fmaj7
No sense in wasting your precious time
 Fmaj7                       G       Am
And oh, you'll think it's getting clearer
                       C
But she'll break your breath here
                  G
She'll take your mind


[Bridge]
Fmaj7          G     Am
Someday when we're older
            C                           Fmaj7
All those things that you screamed you'd find
Fmaj7        G        Am
I would've given the whole world
               C
But it wasn't mine
               G
And you aren't mine


[Chorus]
Fmaj7       G       Am
Oh, welcome to the river
               C                  Fmaj7
No sense in wasting your precious time
 Fmaj7                       G       Am
And oh, you'll think it's getting clearer
                       C
But she'll break your breath here
                  G
She'll take your mind
