Biography:
Dry the River were a folk rock band from Stratford, London, UK, formed in spring 2009. Frontman Peter Liddle decribes their sound as "folky gospel music played by a post-punk band". Currently, the band consists of Peter Liddle (vocals, guitar), Matthew Taylor (guitar, keys, vocals), Scott Miller (bass, percussion, vocals) and Jon Warren (drums, percussion). The original lineup also included Will Harvey (violin, viola, keys, mandolin); however, he left the band in early 2014.

Tuned a half-step down, enjoy!
C
I'm not a stone
You're not to gather
F
And break every bone
C
ah ah ah
We labour beneath
the weight of our sorrow,
F
the crown of our grief
C
ah ah ah
F
Just because I'm working and you sleep alone
Em
Don't mean that I won't be there when you need me at home
C
Cos I will
F
Just because I'm working when you sleep at night
Em
Don't mean that I won't be there in the nick of time
C
Cos I will
F
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
C
In the mouth of an angry harbour
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
F
Could not explain on waking
How you were the cape of certain hope
C
Couldn't paint it in pictures darling
F
I only wanted you to know
ah ah, ah ah oh
AND REPEAT FOR THE REST OF THE SONG:
You're making a mess
You cut up the curtains for your summer dress
ah ah oh
We danced like we did
Like children who don't know what modesty is
ah ah oh
When you done spinning like an errant moon
Curled up on the carpet like you're missing the womb of your mum
You can take your battles to the king of the sea
I'll be right behind, you can count on me, my love
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbour
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Could not explain on waking
How you were the cape of certain hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures darling
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbour
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Could not explain on waking
How you were the cape of certain hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures darling
I only wanted you to know
ah ah, ah ah oh
C
I'm not a stone
You're not to gather
F
And break every bone
C
ah ah ah
We labour beneath
the weight of our sorrow,
F
the crown of our grief
C
ah ah ah
F
Just because I'm working and you sleep alone
Em
Don't mean that I won't be there when you need me at home
C
