Just Around The Riverbend

[Intro] C  F  C  F

[Verso]

     C
What I love most about rivers is
    F                      C9/G
You can't step in the same river twice
    F/A            G/B              C
The water's always changing, always flowing
    Fmaj7
But people, I guess, can't live like that
   Am
We all must pay a price
      Dm7                              Dm7/G   G
To be safe, we lose our chance of ever knowing
Em                         F
What's around the riverbend
        F/G             Em/G     F/G    Em/G    F/G    G
Waiting just around the riverbend

[Refrão]

  G/F  C/E  F
I look once more
C
Just around the riverbend
  G/F  C/E  F
Beyond the shore
C
Where the gulls fly free
      Am
Don't know what for
D9            D9
What I dream the day might send
F/G             F/G     G
Just around the riverbend
    A  D
For me
           A  D
Coming for me

[Verso]

  C
I feel it there beyond those trees
   F                  Gsus
Or right behind these waterfalls
    F/A           G/B              C       G/C    C
Can I ignore that sound of distant drumming
      Fmaj7
For a handsome sturdy husband
           G/A             Am
Who builds handsome sturdy walls
    Dm7               F                  F/G    G    F/G    G
And never dreams that something might be coming?
Em                       F
Just around the riverbend
F/G   Em/G           F/G    G    F/G    G
Just around the riverbend

[Refrão]

  G/F  C/E  F
I look once more
C
Just around the riverbend
  G/F  C/E  F
Beyond the shore
C
Somewhere past the sea
      Am
Don't know what for
D9         D9
Why do all my dreams extend
F/G                      F/G
Just around the riverbend?
Dm/G
Just around the riverbend

[Ponte]

Fadd9
Should I choose the smoothest course
C/E                   F(add9)    F
Steady as the beating drum?
F/A                G/B
Should I marry Kocoum?
   C                     F(add9)   F
Is all my dreaming at an end?
   F            G/A         Am     G/A   Am
Or do you still wait for me, Dream Giver
Dm7             G7sus
Just around the river
C  F
bend?
