[Verse]
Am                  G
 I was born on the banks of Eternity
   Dm                      F
A page of the history it teaches
Am                     G
 Not a care, lived my life like a hurricane
        Dm                           F
Leaving everything along the way in pieces


[Pre-Chorus]
                Dm                    G
Some may have cheered, some may have wondered
          Dm             G
If I am flesh, if I am stone
                 Dm                    G
Thoughts of you tear through me like thunder
             Dm                         G
You are the light that has led me back home


[Chorus]
 C
Take me to the river, baby
 G
Wash away the lies
         Dm                   F
I've got no reputation living in your eyes
 C
Take me to Eternity
 G               G#m7  Am
Let me bury this disgu-ise


[Verse]
Am                      G
 A Southern boy has it harder sometimes
      Dm                       F
It's like you were climbing a razor
Am                        G
 You were there when my dreams had all turned to dust
        Dm                          F
And the man in the mirror was a stranger


[Pre-Chorus]
            Dm                 G
Look at me now, a soulless survivor
            Dm                      G
No mask can hide the man that I've made
            Dm                 G
You ease my pain. You make it silent
          Dm                   G
Slowly I feel it beginning to fade


[Chorus]
 C
Take me to the river, baby
 G
Wash away the lies
         Dm                   F
I've got no reputation living in your eyes
 C
Take me to Eternity
 G               G#m7  Am
Let me bury this disgu-ise


[Bridge]
           G
I want to feel it
                           Am
Rushing over me into the tide
           G
I want to taste it
                                 F    G
Every moment 'til the end of my life


[Solo]
|Am |Am |Am |Am |G |Em |Am |Am |


[Pre-Chorus]
              Dm                   G
I have laid still, adrift in your memory
             Dm                        G
Hoping your faith would erase all the years
            Dm               G
Maybe some time, maybe some magic
            Dm                         G
Maybe your love will make everything clear


[Chorus]
 C
Take me to the river, baby
 G
Wash away the lies
         Dm                   F
I've got no reputation living in your eyes
 C
Take me to Eternity
 G               G#m7  Am
Let me bury this disgu-ise
 C
Take me to the river, baby
 G
Wash away the lies
          Dm                     F
There are no expectations hiding in your eyes
 C
Take me to Eternity
 G             G#m7        Am
Let me bury this . . . disguise
