Artist: The Wood Brothers
Song: The Shore
Transcribed by: J-Heck
Notes: There's some really interesting phrasing in this song vocally & musically.
The "DD" in the last verse and the finish are two quick strums on D that are held for
the remainder of the measure.
I definitely recommend practising with the record to get the vocal phrasing just right.
Also notice that at the last chorus and coda hold the A chord longer, rather than
stepping up to the B.
INTRO: |: A,,,B,,, A,,,B,,, :|
A B A B
Sometimes I go to the river
A B A B
Mmm, just to watch it flow
E D A B
It ripples & it dances
E D A B
And I don't know where it goes
A,,, B,,,
A B A B
You brought me to the edge
A B A B
But I held you to the ground
E D A B
I thought I knew better
E D A B
Then I let you in the water
A B
Baby it's time to take your hand and
D A B
Leave behind what I know
A B
Baby it's time to follow you into
D A B
The river and let go of the shore.
A,,,B,,, A,,,B,,, A,,,B,,,
A B A B
Once I thought I knew
A B A B
How everything should be
E D A B
I would damn up the river
E D A B
Blinded by what I wanted to see
A B
Baby it's time to take your hand and
D A B
Leave behind what I know
A B
Baby it's time to follow you into
D A B
The river and let go of the shore.
A,,,B,,, A,,,B,,,
DD A B
I tried to change you
DD A B
I didn't understand
DD A B
But now all I want to do
E D A
Is get down on my knees and thank you
A B
Baby it's time to take your hand and
D A
Leave behind what I know
A B
Baby it's time to follow you into
D A
The river and let go of the shore.
DD A
And let go of the shore
DD A
And let go of the shore

I'm a big fan of accurate, legible, and neatly formatted charts that are
typically true to studio versions, with noted exceptions.
