C              G        F
Tell me what you think, tell me what you feel
                C           G      F
Is this thing a fake, or is it for real
               C          G        F
Is it what you hoped for, what you dreamed
                C                 G     F
Is it something strange, that you never seen


                 F          G      Am
Does it lift you up, closer to the light
                 F        G      Am
Does it send you raging into the night
               F            G    Am
Where did it begin, will it ever end
               F           G     Am
Where the sun sets and the river bends



Am - C - G - C
Am - C - F - C


                C           G          F
Where the river bends, is a place I've been
                   C                           G        F
The water's not as blue, and the grass well it ain't so green
                 C              G        F
The current gets strong, it can pull you down
               C                    G    F
You gotta swim hard, if you want to turn around

                    F              G        Am
But I don't want to go there, baby not with you
                F                 G           Am
I'm happy right here, now I got a love that's true
              F           G          Am
So let's stay awhile, and invite our friends
                F            G      Am
No one needs to go where the river bends

                F              G     Am

                  F                       G    Am
I'm gonna be with you right here till the very end
              F                    G    Am                 
So let's stay forever and ever and ever amen
                F            G      Am
No one needs to go where the river bends
