Life Is A River

Capo 1
                G                        C 
As I went out walking, on a fine summer day 
                        D 
Through hills and the valleys 
                G     D 
I soon lost my way 
                   G                            C   
Till I came to an old man, kneeling down by a stream 
                  D                            G 
Gazing in to the water, like he was lost in a dream 
                    C                        G 
In his hand was a picture, he clung to for life 
                          A                         D 
And his eyes filled with tears, as he tried not to cry 
                    C    G                  Em 
As he looked to the heavens, he started to pray 
                     C  D                       G 
In the quiet country side, I could hear the man say 



           G                        C 
Life is a river, I'll go with the flow 
                   D                      G    D 
And where it will take me, the Lord only knows 
                 G                            C 
but I miss you sweetheart, your kindness and love 
                G                D                  G 
But i Know one day, we'll sail away on God's ocean above 


He said now young man, you're a stranger to me 
Could I bother you kindly, for your company 
Today I am thinking, of a time long ago 
And I need to tell someone of a girl I love so 
It's 42 years today, since Rose took my hand 
and proudly I loved life, her husband, her man 
till only last week son, God took her away 
As I kissed her softly, these words she did say 

Life is a River... 

And with that the old man, sent me on my way 
and said 'by the water I'll kneel for the day' 
'I look at the river, starting out on it's life, 
It's where I feel close to, my beautiful wife
