Lord Huron - Wait by the River: chords

C
I will wait by the river
In the light of the moon
At the edge of the city
I will wait for you
F
Though I can't wait forever
Someday I'll be dead and gone
And I won't be forgiven
F                 C
For what I've done

Chorus:
C
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river

I will cry out to heaven
as it rains down on me
I will beg for forgiveness,
get down on my knees
If I can't change the weather,
maybe I can change your mind
If we can't be together,
what's the point of life?

C
Baby, I didn't mean the things I said
I don't honestly wish you were dead
I'm a fool; I'm just a man
If I only could hold you again

F
And the stars fill the river
As it flows into the sky
And the mind leaves the body
And floats higher and higher
If we can't be together
I will leave this world behind
If I can't touch your body
                    C
Can I touch the sky?

Chorus:
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
I will wait by the river
