ACROSS THE RIVER INTRO D5 F Am7 D5 G/D D5 G/D VERSED F Am7 D She moved back around here thirty-five weeks ago todayG/D D Oh down the laneD F Am7 At night she walks on the banks and remembers how sheD G/DDreamed of rowing awayD And how she left one dayAm7 G/DShe left with a driven look in her eyesDCame back around with it still insideAm7 G/They said give it some time and you'll forget about it tooD We know they always doCHORUSD Well i know some fine dayC G DYou will find your way across the riverDRow down slowC GThere's a long way to goDAcross the riverVERSE She was proud and so strong And she tried not to listen to idle talk Downtown where she walked They sit around and they say That she came back with her tail between her legs Like they always said she would Well i hear it's better on the other side They say you'll never do it so don't even try Well you may be beaten downwith your closed mind But don't try and make it mine Well i know Some fine day You will find your way across the river Row down slow There's a long way to go Across the river "your wild days are through" is what they said I dreamed she came, when i was down and I walked where she led Standing on the shore She looks to the west with a look of longing To where the grass seems greener There's a hard and distant prize It probably won't happen but i think i'll try Well even if it doesn't happen for me It still beats hanging around here Well i know Some fine day You will find your way across the river Row down slow There's a long way to go Across the river
