C*                                                                         Em* 
Down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me 
                                                                       C* 
love took me down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me 
                                              Em* 
love took me down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me 
   
   C*                                        Em* 
My love took me down to the river to silence me, 
    C*                                       Em* 
And when he left I could not speak. 
  C*                                         Em* 
I lay on the ground I tried to scream, 
       C*                                     Em* 
But no sound did come out, I could only bleed blue. 
  C*                                          Em* 
I waited for him till the frost did come, 
   C*                                         Em* 
My skin it turned blue and my body was numb. 
       C*                                      Em* 
But my heart it burned out till it was no more, 
        C*                                       Em* 
Still I wait on the ground I don't know what for. 

Am*               Em* 
There, there is a heart in here. 
Am*                 Em* 
Where, where is the heart in here? 

Am                           C       
This love's killing me but I want it to. 
Am                               C 
So long you're gone, just like I always knew. 

              G                Am 
But I'm still here waiting for you. 
              G                Am (hold it out) 
But I'm still here waiting for you. 

   C                                         Em 
My love took me down to the river to silence me. 
   C                                         Em 
And when he left I could not speak. 
            C                                Em 
And what he said to me I can never say. 
             C                               Em 
Because it's breaking my heart to this very day. 


Am*               Em* 
There, there is a heart in here. 
Am*                 Em* 
Where, where is the heart in here? 


Am                           C       
This love's killing me but I want it to. 
Am                               C 
So long you're gone, just like I always knew. 


              G                Am 
But I'm still here waiting for you. 
              G                Am (hold it out) 
But I'm still here waiting for you. 

C* 
Down to the river to silence me,    
                                          Em* 
love took me down to the river to silence me 
(repeat this a total of 13 times. You should hear when they change from C to Em) 

Am                Em 
There, there is a heart in here. 
Am                  Em 
Where, where is the heart in here? 

Am                           C       
This love's killing me but I want it to. 
Am                               C 
So long you're gone, just like I always knew. 

              G                Am 
But I'm still here waiting for you. 
              G                Am 
But I'm still here waiting for you. 
G                Am 
Here waiting for you. 
G                Am 
Here waiting for you.
