Biography:
The Wooden Sky is a Canadian indie rock band based in Toronto, Ontario, that formed in 2003 as Friday Morning's Regret, but changed their name in 2007. They trace their roots back through the winter of 2003, when with a collection of songs under his arm, Gavin Gardiner began to seek out musical collaborators to help bring his sketches out from the bedroom and onto the stage. It was soon after the first snow fall that Andrew Wyatt and Chris Cocca joined Gardiner and began to flush out ideas that would become their first EP.

The Wooden Sky - River Song One

[Verse]
C F Am F
I watched the water roll in off the river
C F C
And said "My dear we're in for it now"
Am Em
You said "Lay your head down
Am Em
Next to mine on the ground
F G C
And if the lord doesn't save us we'll drown"
[Verse]
C F Am F
So we both lay there shaking our hands in the river
C F C
Saying "I'm sure we were born just to die"
Am Em
But when the water rushed in
Am Em
I gave in to my sins
F G C
And found my own way to higher ground
[Verse]
C F Am F
Where I watched as the water took hold of your body
C F C
From high on my hill of retreat
Am Em
You smiled up at me
Am Em
Amongst the bodies and trees
F G C
I didn't sleep for a week after that
[Verse]
C F Am F
Finally the river let go of your body
C F C
And my mind drifted off into sleep
Am Em
But your eyes came to me
Am Em
Disguised as the sea
F G C
Saying "I can't forgive you for this"
[Verse]
C F Am F
Please darling, please, you're much stronger than me
C F C
And I've tried all my days to believe
Am Em
You said "Don't come around
Am Em
The next time you get down
F G C
Looking to me for release"
