To The River Chords

(ver. 1)
John Mellencamp
[Intro]
G  G  F  F  G  G  F  F


[Verse]
          G
There are masters and slaves, we are sunlight and shadow
F                G
All roads to the river
G
I am lost, I am saved, I'm beloved and betrayed
F                G
All roads to the river


[Chorus]
G                  F                    G
And the river runs wide, the river runs deep (runs deep)
                  F                G
And I spit in the eye of safe company
G                 F                             G
When I dive right down (right down) to the undertow (undertow)
                   F           C               G
Well, the deeper I drown...oh, the higher I'll go


[Instrumental]
G  G  F  F  G  G  F  F


[Verse]
     G
I am whispering dreams, I am howling revolutions
F                G
All roads to the river
G
I am Valentine sweet and I live in this nightmare,
F                G
All roads to the river


[Chorus]
G                  F                    G
And the river runs wide, the river runs deep (runs deep)
                  F                G
And I spit in the eye of safe company
G                 F                             G
When I dive right down (right down) to the undertow (undertow)
                   F           C               G
Well, the deeper I drown...oh, the higher I'll go


[Instrumental]  
G  G  F  F  G  G  F  F   [stop for one full count]
G  G  F  F


[Verse]
        G
This is nothing like we planned, that's the way it's always been
F                G
All roads to the river
G
I have hated, I have loved, I have prayed, I have sinned
F                G
All roads to the river


[Chorus]
G                  F                    G
And the river runs wide, the river runs deep (runs deep)
                  F                G
And I spit in the eye of safe company
G                 F                             G
When I dive right down (right down) to the undertow (undertow)
                   F           C               G
Well, the deeper I drown...oh, the higher I'll go

[Outro]
