Cheryl Wheeler - The Rivers


CAPO: 4th Fret



INTRO: G D G C G D G

D G C
In the afternoon light, riding around
G D
Riding my bike all over town
G D C
They said on TV, that out west right now
G D G
The rivers can poison us


D G C
And it was hard to believe, watching it win
G D
Kept coming down and kept coming in
G D Em
And finally reached where our great cities stand
C D G
Now the rivers can poison us


Am D
And once more we find out, in case we forgot
G Em
Just who is strong here and just who is not
Am D
As if we could hand her some route that we'd plot
G D G
And now the rivers can poison us


D G C
It lifted the trash, it lifted the gold
G D
And lifted the lives too weak to hold
G D C
All swept into some diluvian fold
G D G
The rivers can poison us


D G C
And it's like all that we've done, has seeped from the sea
G D
It's been, take what you want and leave what you leave
G D Em
We sure have been pigs since Adam and Eve
C D G
Now the rivers can poison us


Am D
And I love the thought of us all being one
G Em
But kids in the third grade pack needles and guns
Am D
And now we might die if we lie in the sun
G D G
And the rivers can poison us


D G C
Salt of the earth, ebb and the flow
G D
All that we have and more than we know
G D C
Laden with garbage from decades ago
G D G
The rivers can poison us


D G C
Well, maybe one day the great salty blue
G D
Will swallow us up with all that we knew
G D Em
And things will start over like they always do
C D G D Em
When the rivers can poison us
C D G
The rivers can poison us
