[Intro]
|G D G G7|C D G D|
[Verse]
G D G G7
One breath of mine, would be too lost a time,
C D G D
If I had not, the right to plead his blood.
G D G G7
One step to take, would be too much to make
C D G G7
If I were walking, where his blood did not flow.
[Chorus]
C D D7 G
And the red, red river still flows,
Em D G G7
Coming down, from the heavenly throne.
C D D7 G
And each time I falter, and cry in my shame,
Em D G D
still the red river, flows over my name.
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G D G G7
Some say we're cruel, when we speak only the truth,
C D G D
Of the blood shed for remission of sin.
G D G G7
But I'll cease not to pray, and I'll ask Him everyday
C D G G7
To let just one drop of his blood fall on me.
[Chorus]
C D D7 G
And the red, red river still flows,
Em D G G7
Coming down, from the heavenly throne.
C D D7 G
And each time I falter, and cry in my shame,
Em D G G7
still the red river, flows over my name.
[Outro]
