[Verse]
(D)                       Dsus2 D         G             D 
You know a dream is like a river, ever changing as it flows. 
         G               D/F#             Em             A 
And a dreamer's just a vessel that must follow where it goes 
            D 
Trying to learn from what's behind him 
            Bm               G 
And never knowing what's in store 
            D 
Makes each day a constant battle 
          A                D 
Just to stay between the shores.
[Chorus]
(D)               Dsus2 D            G         D 
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry, 
        G            D/F#         Em           A 
Like a bird upon the wind these waters are my sky 
            D                    G 
I'll never reach my destination if I never try 
           D                        A          D Dsus2 D 
So I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
[Verse]
(D)                     Dsus2 D            G            D 
Too many times we stand aside and let the waters slip away 
              G            D/F#       Em           A 
'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today 
               D                         Bm            G 
So don't you sit upon the shoreline and say you're satisfied 
  D                              A                 D 
Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide.
[Chorus]
(D)               Dsus2 D           G          D 
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry, 
        G            D/F#        Em            A 
Like a bird upon the wind these waters are my sky 
             D                              G 
I'll never reach my destination if I never try 
           D                       A           D Dsus2 D 
So I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
[Bridge]
D   Dsus2 D        Bm                 G 
       And there's bound to be rough waters 
      D                   G 
And I know I'll take some falls 
              Em               D/F# 
But with the good Lord as my captain 
       G                    A  
I can make it through them all...
[Chorus]
           (E)                     (A)        (E) 
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry, 
       (A)          (E/G#)      (F#m)         (B) 
Like a bird upon the wind these waters are my sky 
             E                  A 
I'll never reach my destination if I never try 
           E                              B        E     A 
So I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry. 
             E 
Yes, I will sail my vessel 
           B         A 
'Til the river runs dry... 
                     E 
'Til the river runs dry.
