[Intro]
Mm, mm

[Verse 1]
I was a wanderer
A luster of such space
If hills could talk they would
Tell me of their peace

[Intro]
Mm, mm

[Verse 2]
On these banks of clay
Carved by waves and sunny days
I sat beside you
It was all I needed, all I knew

[Chorus]
Lead me down to beside the river
Warm my bones, scare the ghosts in the light
I will, I will, I will go down to the river
Rid my lungs of these heavy sighs

[Intro]
Mm,mm

[Verse 3]
As night and darkness fell
Came thicker masks and thicker shells
On shoulders giants I rode
Down to the waters the free have known
On these banks of clay
Carved by waves and sunny days
I sat beside you
It was all I needed, all I knew

[Chorus]
Lead me down to beside the river
Warm my bones, scare the ghosts in the light
I will, I will, I will go down to the river
Rid my lungs of these heavy sighs
[Intro]

[Bridge]
I feel these waters curling over
Curling over, curling over me
I watched the shoreline and faded out
Faded out, faded out to sea

[Chorus]
Lead me down to beside the river
Warm my bones, scare the ghosts in the light
I will, I will, I will go down to the river
Rid these lungs of these heavy sighs
