Tales From The Riverbank

The Jam


Tom: Dm

Gm           Dm       Gm          Dm
Bring you a tale from the pastel fields
Gm        Dm    Gm          Dm
Where we ran when we were young
Gm        Dm     Gm         Dm
This is a tale from the water meadows
Gm        Dm          Gm
Trying to spread some hope into your
D
heart

[Verse 2]

Gm              Dm           Gm
It`s mixed with happiness - its mixed
     Dm
with tears
Gm          Dm         Gm
Both life a death are carried in this
D
stream
Gm        Dm        Gm            Dm
That open space you could run for miles
Gm      Dm        Gm             D
Now you don't get so many to the pound

[Chorus]

F                Dm                  A
True its a dream mixed with nostalgia
F               Dm
But its a dream that Ill always hang on to
A
That Ill always run to
Dm
Won't you join me by the riverbank

[Verse 3]

Gm       Dm         Gm           Dm
Paradise found down by the still waters
Gm         Dm         Gm           Dm
Joined in the race to the rainbows end
Gm         Dm        Gm            Dm
No fears no worries just a golden country
Gm         Dm       Gm            D
Woke up at sunrise, went home at sunset

[Bridge]

A                        Dm
Now life is so critical, life is too

cynical
A                      Dm
We lose our innocence, we lose our very
D
soul


[Chorus]

F                 Dm                  A
True it`s a dream mixed with nostalgia
F                Dm
But it`s a dream that Ill always hang on to
A
That Ill always run to
F                 Dm                  A
True it`s a dream mixed with nostalgia

F                Dm
But it`s a dream that Ill always hang on to
A
That I always run to
Dm
Won't you join me by the riverbank
Dm
Come on and join me by the riverbank
