"Listen To The River"  (From the "Wake" Album)
by: Emmet Swimming
Tabed by: Eric Wiltshire

Listen and play along with the song in order to get the strumming
patterns because they vary from verse to chorus

Chords: (Intro)
D    A    E    G  x2

[verse]
D                  A
Have you ever seen it flow
               E   G
And wonder where it goes....as it tumbles
D                  A
While standing on the shore
               E    G
There's things you ignore....as it falls apart
D               A
Have you ever seen a raven gasping
E           G
Dying breath just to go away
D                A
Have you ever seen a cloud that's laughing
E                G       (rythm change)  D (verse runs into chorus)
You have to wait for it, it's not to late for it


[chorus1]
A         E         G        D
There's a sound on the river tonight
A      E           G
Put your head down and you will hear
D    A       E    G
Voices crying the river's dying
D      A  E   G               D    A     E    G (rythm change)
No on ever....listens to the river


[verse]
D              A
The water that surrounds
              E   G
Forever falling down....as it makes it's way
D            A
Trip upon the shore
              E      G
Keep trying to ignore....all the things you see
D                A
Have you ever watched it rain on Sunday
E              G
Have you ever tried to stare into the sun
D              A
It's burnt on every hill and byway
E                G       (rythm change)  D (verse runs into chorus)
It's not to late for it, you have to pray for it


[chorus2] x2
A      E       G       D
There's a song on the river tonight
A       E          G
Put your head down and you will hear
D    A       E     G
Voices crying the river's trying
D    A    E    G    D
No one ever

A      E       G       D
When you come on the river tonight
A       E           G
Put your head down and you will hear
D    A       E     G
Voices crying the river's dying
D    A   E   G      D
No one ever....listens to the river


[bridge to chorus2 repeat]
D    A    E    G   x2

[repeat chorus2]

I figured this out in like 5 minutes so it might not be completly
accurate but it's close enough. Good Luck with it!
