"River of Love" by T-Bone Burnett (from the "T-Bone Burnett"
album)

VERSE 1
 F                                    G                      F
There's a river of love that runs through all times.
                                        G                        F

There's a river of grief that floods through our lives.
                                          G
It starts when a heart gets broken in two
             F                     F
By the thief of belief in anything that's true.
                     F                     G                      F
But there's a river of love that runs through all times.


VERSE 2
F                                     G                      F
There's a river of love that runs through all times.
                                               G                       F
But there's a river of tears that flows through our eyes.
                                             G
We fight through the night for freedom as it fades
          F                                F
Into a jail where we fail every time we make a break.
                      F                    G                        F
But there's a river of love that runs through all times.


INSTRUMENTAL VERSE


BRIDGE
Am                                             F
I had to run before I knew how to crawl.
       Am                                                                  F
The first step was hard, but I've had trouble with them all.
                    Am
But now the night grows darker and the day grows dim

And I know I never will see you again.
          F                         G
And I always made you happy.


VERSE 3
F                                    G                      F
There's a river of love that runs through all times.
                                       G                  F
There's a river of fire that burns with no light.
                                       G
The flame is the pain of dreams gone up in smoke.
                F                               F
                     F                     G                        F
But there's a river of love that runs through all times.
