By This River

(intro) C Am7 Fmaj7 Am

C
Here we are
Stuck by this river,
Am7
You and I
                                     Fmaj7
Underneath a sky that's ever falling down, down, down
             Am
Ever falling down.

C
Through the day
As if on an ocean
Am7
Waiting here,
                                  Fmaj7
Always failing to remember why we came, came, came:
                Am
I wonder why we came.

(solo) C Am7 Fmaj7 Am

C
You talk to me
as if from a distance
Am7
And I reply
                                     Fmaj7
With impressions chosen from another time, time, time,
             Am
From another time.
