[Intro]
Em    D  Em
Em    D  Em
 
[Verse]
Em
Take me back to my boat on the river
  D                B7
I need to go down, need to come down
Em
Take me back to my boat on the river
    D           B7     Em
And I won't cry out anymore
Em
Time stands still as I gaze in her water
    D              B7
She eases me down, touching me gently
         Em
With the waters that flow past my boat on the river
   D           B7     Em
So I don't cry out anymore
 
[Chorus]
        D
Oh, the river is wide
    B7                  Em                         A
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
Am                    Em
All roads lead to Tranquility Base
          F#                    B7
Where the frown on my face disappears
Em
Take me down to my boat on the river
    D           B7     Em
And I won't cry out anymore
 
[Instrumental]
Em      D    B7
Em      D B7 Em
 
[Chorus]
        D
Oh, the river is deep
    B7                  Em                         A
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
    Am                    Em
And all roads lead to Tranquility Base
          F#                    B7
Where the frown on my face disappears
Em
Take me down to my boat on the river
  D                          B7
I need to go down, won't you let me go down
Em
Take me back to my boat on the river
    D           B7     Em
And I won't cry out anymore
    D           B7     Em
And I won't cry out anymore
    B7          B7     Em
And I won't cry out anymore
