Finally
G Em7
We have seen some things
G Em7
Some awfully nice
G Cadd9
Some dreadfully bad
G Em7
But we will sing
G Em7
Wash the blood, off our knees
G Em7
Cause our love breaks
G Cadd9
Through rough seas, our ship will sail it

G Em7
I, don't, understand
G2 Cadd9
How this world will work
G Em7
Cause time will tell us nothing
G2 Cadd9
I'll take a chance on something
G, G, Em7, Em7 (muted)
G
Down river, down river
Em7
Down river, down…
G, G, Em7, Em7 (muted)
G
Go, don't stop, go, don't stop
Em7
Go, don't stop, go, don't stop
Now go..
(same pattern for the rest of the song)
Finally
We have seen some things
But bells in your hallways
Don't move you in the right place
So we will sing
Cast our hopes out to sea
Though our hears break
Through violent winds, our ship will sail it
- That's about it played in its most simplest form.
