"Riverside" - by John Gorka from "Old Futures Gone" 2003
Capo on 1st fret if you want to match the key of the recording...
C Em
Time is a river with no riverside
x30231
Dm Dm/C G G7
Space a sea that has no tide
C Em
I can’t get across, no it’s too wide
Dm Dm/C G
If you have loved then you have cried
We are dust that was made in stars
Now we roll off to work in cars
When we were young we spilled our dreams in bars
Now we clean up the mess
A little bit of thought can make a lot of sense
And every little day can make a difference
Yes I’m speaking in the present tense
Where my faults and seams wear through
I can be more than, than a little dense
You’re gonna get splinters if you ride that fence
I do like the way the river bends
When it flows back to you
We called it gravy, never called it sauce
Better learn something if love gets lost
How hard the hurt, how high the cost
How all the smooth goes to rough
Time is a river with no riverside
Space a sea that has no tide
I can’t get across, no it’s too wide
If you have loved then you have cried
