Chords
	 
[Verse]
Am7 F
Still got the flowers that you sent
C G
And the note you wrote that said we're meant to be forever
Am7 F
I keep them all as evidence
C G
In a drawer under the mirror, filled with empty promises
Dm7
I don't know why
Am7
I keep letting you lie to me
C
Hard as I try
G
It seems I can't break away
Am7
I thought that you would be the hero
F
Come and save the day
C
But you're a villain
G
Your sins unforgiven
[Chorus]
Am7 F
I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
C G
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Am7 F
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
C G
The river of tears has washed me clean
Dm7
Go 'head and wish me well
Am
I'll cry a wishing well
C
I'll fly before I fail
G Am7
I'll set sail and drift away
F
So I won't need you here
C
Love sinks and hope floats
G
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
[Chorus]
Am7 F
I catch your scent in every wind
C
And I recall the love we had
G Am7
I can't pretend that I
F
Don't miss you every now and then
C
But the hurt is for the better
G
Moving on, it's now or never
Dm7 Am7
Lost in the tide, I can't keep my pillows dry
C
Like there's a sea in my eyes
G Am7
I realise that sometimes love brings you flowers
F
Then it builds you coffins
C
And far too often
G
We end up falling to our demise
[Chorus]
Am7 F
I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
C G
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Am7 F
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
C G
The river of tears has washed me clean
Dm7
Go 'head and wish me well
Am
I'll cry a wishing well
C
I'll fly before I fail
G Am7
I'll set sail and drift away
F
So I won't need you here
C
Love sinks and hope floats
G
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
[Bridge]
Am7 G C
Cry me a river, build myself a bridge
Dm7 F
I'm over this, can't let memories become the death of me
Am7 G C
I'm glad to see everything that you are
Dm7 F
And I believe that you are everything I needed
But I don't need no more
[Chorus]
Am7 F
I'm going down, and you have watched me drown
C G
In a river of tears, lost beneath the stream
Am7 F
Under the waves, I've found the strength to say
C G
The river of tears has washed me clean
Dm7
Go 'head and wish me well
Am
I'll cry a wishing well
C
I'll fly before I fail
G Am7
I'll set sail and drift away
F
So I won't need you here
C
Love sinks and hope floats
G
In a river of tears
In a river of tears
