A River Runs Between Chords

(ver. 1)
The Changing Room
Intro: Em D Em (x2)

     Em
Into harbour we sailed on the incoming tide
    G                       B
Our fishing nets full of sardine
    Em          D                         Em
One town to the starboard, and one to the port
            D      Em
And a river runs between


       Em
On the quayside she stood with her basket in hand
     G                       B
Such beauty I’ve never since seen
    Em         D                        Em
And she on the west bank, and me on the east
            D      Em
And a river runs between


G                    D
And as we haul away, I’m still in yesterday
Em                            G           D
Everything’s changed with the turn of the tide
G                    D               
I paid the ferryman, anchors aweigh again
Em                    G        D
My love for her I did never confide
          Em    D      Em
Because a river runs between


Instrumental: (verse chords)
        

Em
The bridge builders came with their concrete and stone
  G                        B
Resistance they hadn’t foreseen
    Em           D                    Em
One town has the money, the other the sun
            D      Em
And a river runs between


G                    D
And as we haul away, I’m still in yesterday
Em                            G           D
Everything’s changed with the turn of the tide
G                    D
I paid the ferryman, anchors aweigh again
Em                    G        D
My love for her I did never confide


G                    D
And as we haul away, I’m still in yesterday
Em                            G           D
Everything’s changed with the turn of the tide
G                      D
She’s way above me, my bride she will never be
  Em                                G         D
A bridge doesn’t change things that happen to us
      Em    D      Em
And a river runs between


   Em
So now there’s a path from the east to the west
      G                        B
And a pretty young maid of eighteen
      Em          D                         Em
But a lifetime of conflict, the two towns divide
            D      Em
And a river runs between
            D      Em
And a river runs between
