5th traste
[Verse 1]
G
We know this river always keeps flowing
G Em
We will be rowing our whole lives long
C G
And we may never know where we're going
Em G D G
But we can go there singing a song
 
[Verse 2]
G
Just like a mother to a child she's holding
G Em
Just like a soldier marching along
C G
Just like the faithful on Sunday morning
Em G D G
Raising our voices, singing a song
 
[Chorus]
Em C
Eyes will shine but not as bright
G
Arms will hold, but not as tight
Em
When a word is only spoken
C Am7
So give it feeling, give it rhyme
Am G
Play it in four quarter time
Em D
Sing it with a heart wide open
 
[Verse 3]
G
Sing of the beauty right there beside you
G Em
Bring it inside you, making you strong
C G
So that when trouble comes round to grieve you
Em G D G
Still it will leave you singing a song
 
[Chorus]
Em C
Eyes will shine but not as bright
G
Arms will hold, but not as tight
Em
When a word is only spoken
C Am7
So give it feeling, give it rhyme
Am G
Play it in four quarter time
Em D
Sing it with a heart wide open
 
[Verse 4]
G
And may the music of life overtake us
G Em
Till angels mistake us for a heavenly throng
C G
And may that joyful sound be our shelter
Em G D G
And find us together, singing a song
Em G D G
We'll be together, singing a song
