Amy Grant: Cry A River

Written by Amy Grant & Wayne Kirkpatrick
Album: Behind The Eyes
Transcribed by Rok Osojnik


This is the saddest, but in my opinion the most beautiful song on the album.

THIS SONG IS CAPOED AT 2ND FRET.
All chords are named as if the capo was the nut.
Sign ! means strum upwards.

Intro:
G D Dsus4
G Cadd9
G D Dsus4
G Cadd9


Verse:
G D Dsus4 C C* Cadd9
Who knew love would come walkin' through my door
C C D G
Turn the light on somewhere down inside

G D Dsus4 C C* Cadd9
Give me a feeling I'd never had before
C
It was a long wait
C D G
it was just the wrong time


Bridge:
!Em C
But I hope you'll hold me now
Em C2
somewhere within
!Em C
And when you think about
C C D
what might have been


Chorus:
G Cadd9
Cry a river
G Cadd9
Flood the sea
G D C2 G
Cry a river over me
G Cadd9
Take the bitter
G Cadd9
With the sweet
G D C2 G
And cry a river over me


(Repeat intro)


Verse:
G D Dsus4 C C* Cadd9
And how do you argue with a feeling in your bones
C C D G
'bout what is and what isn't meant to be
G D
Some things you live with
C C* Cadd9
And you never let it show
C
Like the pain I felt
C D G
The day I watched you leave


Bridge:
!Em C
But I hope you'll think of me
Em C2
When tender winds blow
!Em C
Sit on the shores of love
C C D
And just let it go



(Repeat Chorus)
