This song is pretty simple with only picking three chords and you can strum it if you
want. I put two parts to every chord, but I also heard another part on D. The last parts
on every chord are mostly meant to be played when the song gets more intense and higher.
It's a fun experimental song, try out different way to play it! :)

Intro: D, C, G

Verse 1:
        D        C            G              D
River's edge, so quiet and full of potential
     C            G                D
With weeping trees and just enough nightfall
   C                   G      D
To cover up the strays
      D                 C
I can hear boats in the distance
       G                                D
Making saviours out of ordinary people

Chorus 1:
         C         G           D
Now they sing in a symphony of keepers
         C           G          D
And they hail in the harmony of saviours


Verse 2:
              D                     C
You've got to live, live, live, and love, love, love
            G                      D
Whether you like it or not, I will love you


Chorus 2:
        C             G           D
Now the wind picks up swiftly and suddenly
         C            G         D
And it's breathing as if from a mouth
        C         G              D
And the edges are lungs that are heaving
         C             G          D
And it's breathing now without my help
       C                G             D
And we turn against the darkness with intention


Verse 3:
        D            C                G
River's edge, you're all that I have
                        D
And a night filled with promises
    C                    G                D
And just enough nightfall to cover up the strays


Chorus 4:
        C            G          D
Now the river's like horses unbroken
       C         G          D
And it really is time for a change
       C         G               D
And it moves and connects with a uniform
        C          G           D
And the bodies return to their makers
         C             G             D
And it's good and it's true, let it wash over you
    C          G         D
Untethered and without a reason

D    C    G
