AmCFC If only my feet could fall as fast as a heart does
 
FCG I would be so long gone
 
AmCFC But I'm stuck, stuck under your thumb
 
FCG I can't get up
AmC F C F G I can't get up, up
Hold G I can't get up
AmCFC If only my eyes could see as high as a mountain
 
FCG Or wherever your heart's gone
 
AmCFC But I have fallen on the bank of this river
 
FCG I can't get up
 
AmC F C F G I can't get up, up
 
Hold G I can't get up
AmCFC If only my heart could speak into this river
 
FCG And you'd drink me up
 
AmCFC I could be free of all these lonesome shivers
 
FCG I could give myself up (give myself up)
 
AmCFC We all go back to the river
 
FCG We will all come undone
 
AmCFC And there you will be, my love, with the faintest touch
 
FCG And I will give myself up
 
AmC F C F G Give myself up, up
 Hold G
