D  Em/D  D, G/D  D, Em/D  D, A (x2)

Verse 1:

D                  Em/D  D
 Hold me, like the River Jordan,
    G/D         D            Em/D       D      A
And I will then say to thee; you are my friend.

Verse 2:

D               Em/D       D
 Carry me, like you are my brother,
G/D             D       Em/D        D      A
 Love me like a mother; will you be there?

D  Em/D  D, G/D  D, Em/D  D, A (x2)

Verse 3:

     D           Em/D         D
When weary, tell me; will you hold me?
     G/D            D              Em/D           D    A
When wrong will you scold me; when lost, will you find me?

Verse 4:

         D          Em/D          D
But they told me; a man should be faithful,
    G/D           D
And walk when not able,
    Em/D            D                 A
And fight 'till the end, but I'm only human.

Interlude:

D  Em/D  D, G/D  D, Em/D  D, A (x2)

Middle 8:

F           D#         D
 Everyone's taking con-trol of me,
F               D#            D
 Seems that the world's got a role for me.
F           D#              D
 I'm so con-fused; will you show to me;
          C                 A
You'll be there for me, and care enough to bear me?
