[Intro]
| Dsus2 | - | F | Am7 |
| Dsus2 | - | - | -   |

[Verse 1]
          Dsus2
Well, she moved back around here
F          Am7
Thirtyfive weeks ago today
Dsus2
     Oh, down the laane
         Dsus2
Well, at night she walks on the banks
      F               Am7                 Dsus2
And remembers how she dreamed of rowing away
And how she left one day

[Pre-Chorus]
    A7sus4                              Cadd9
She left  with a driven look in her eyes
G                     Dsus2
Came back around with it   still inside
     Am7
They give it some time
                          Cadd9
You'll forget about it too
   G
We know they always do

[Chorus]
Dsus2             Dsus2      G6/B
     Well, I know some fine day
 Cadd9         Am7      G
You   will find   your way
 Em7        Dsus2
Across the river, cross the river
           G6/B
Row down slow  
              Cadd9   Am7
There's a long     way   to go
G Em7        Dsus2 Dsus4
  Cross the river,
Dsus2
    cross the river

[Verse 2]
Dsus2
She  was proud and so strong
        F            Am7            Dsus2
But she tried not to listen to idle talk 
G6/B                   Dsus2
    Downtown where she walked
G6/B           Dsus2
    Well, they sit  around and they say
         F                  Am7              Dsus2
That she came back with her tail between her legs
G6/B                 Dsus2
    Like they always said she would

[Pre-Chorus]
G6/B
    Well,
  A7sus4
I hear  it's better on the other side
     G                               Dsus2
They say you'll never do it so don't even try
Well,
    A7sus4
you may   be beaten down with your closed mind
    G                    Em7
But don't try to make it mine

[Chorus]
             Dsus2      G6/B
Well, I know some fine day
 Cadd9         Am7      G
You   will find   your way
 Em7        Dsus2
Across the river, cross the river
           G6/B
Row down slow  
              Cadd9   Am7
There's a long     way   to go
G Em7        Dsus2 Dsus4
  Cross the river,
Dsus2
    cross the river

[Bridge]
      Bbsus2     F
"Your wild  days are through"
        G
Is what they said
  Bbsus2      F          G
I dreamed she came, and I went down
And I walked where she led

[Verse 3]
Dsus2
Standing on the shore
    F            Am7                    Dsus2
She looks to the west with a look of longing
G6/B                      Dsus2
    where the grass seems greener

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, there's a hard and distant prize
Probably won'na happen but I think I'll try
Well, even if it doesn't happen for me
It still beats a hanging out here

[Chorus]
             Dsus2      G6/B
Well, I know some fine day
 Cadd9         Am7      G
You   will find   your way
 Em7        Dsus2
Across the river, cross the river
           G6/B
Row down slow
