Maura O'Connell - Every River


CAPO: 2nd Fret




[Intro]
G  Em  G  Em  C  D  Em


[Verse 1]
            G  
Once upon a time 
Em                G
Somewhere in your past
C               G
Someone said forever, babe
        Em             G
But the promise didn't last
Em              G
Now you don't believe
Em           G
Love is ever true
    C               G
You steel yourself against the day
     Em            G
When I stop loving you


[Chorus]
C                               D
When the day comes that I don't love you
Em              C               D
Every star will fall out of the sky
C                  G       C
Every mountain will tumble down
Em    D         G
Every river run dry


[Verse 2]
Em                G
For every drop of rain
     Em               G
That ever touched the ground
    C               G
For every tear that ever fell
    Em           G
And never made a sound
Em      G        
I'll be there 
   Em                G
To hear you when you call
    C                G
And I'll be there to catch you, baby
Em              G
Should you ever fall


[Chorus]
C                                 D
And if the day comes that I don't love you
Em              C               D
Every star will fall out of the sky
    C                  G       C
And every mountain will tumble down
Em    D         G
Every river run dry


[Instrumental]
G  Em  D  C    Em  G  D  C


[Chorus]
                                  D
But if the day comes that I don't love you
Em              C               D
Every star will fall out of the sky
    C                   G      C
And every mountain will tumble down
Em        D         G
And every river run dry
  Em       D         G
Ohh, every river run dry


[Outro]   (fade to end)
Em  G  Em  C    D    G  Em
