- Boat on the River


CAPO III
Verse 1:
(Dm)Take me down to my boat on the river
I (C)need to go down, I (A)need to come down
(Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
Verse 2:
(Dm)Time stands still as I gaze in her waters
She (C)eases me down, (A)touching me gently
With the (Dm)waters that flow past my boat on the river
So (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
Chorus 1:
Oh the (C)river is wide
The river it touches my (Dm)life
like the waves on the (G)sand
And (Gm)all roads lead to (Dm)tranquility base
Where the (E)frown on my face (A)disappears
(Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
(instr.)
Chorus 2:
Oh the (C)river is deep
The river it touches my (Dm)life
like the waves on the (G)sand
And (Gm)all roads lead to (Dm)tranquility base
Where the (E)frown on my face (A)disappears
(Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
And (A)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore....

Styx. - Boat on the River


CAPO III
Take me down to my boat on the river
I need to go down, I need to come down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won't cry out anymore
Time stands still as I gaze in her waters
She eases me down, touching me gently
With the waters that flow past my boat on the river
So I won't cry out anymore
Oh the river is wide
The river it touches my life
Like the waves on the sand
And all roads lead to tranquility base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won't cry out anymore
Oh the river is deep
The river it touches my life
like the waves on the sand
And all roads lead to tranquility base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won't cry out anymore
And I won't cry out anymore
And I won't cry out anymore....
