[Intro]
C    F  G F C
 
 
[Verse 1]
C                         F
I wanna be there when the voices in your head
    G     C
Are loud enough to make you lose your mind
                   F
And just the same, when you're dominating the day
               C
I wanna be the one that's by your side
                            F
You know my love is not the jealous type
                  C
It doesn't matter if we win or lose
                      F
Yeah, I could stay or I could come
                              C
No matter where you're coming from
                        N.C.
I can be the one to let you choose
 
 
[Chorus]
C            F        C                Am
(Oh) I wanna hold you close, but never hold you back
              G
Just like the banks do the river
C               F    C                 Am
(Oh) And if you ever feel like you are not enough
          G              C
I'm gonna break all your mirrors
             F                 C        Am
(Oh) I wanna be there when the darkness closes in
            G
To make the truth a little clearer
C            F        C                Am
(Oh) I wanna hold you close, but never hold you back
            G                  C   F C Am
I'll be the banks for your river
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
            G                C    F C Am
I'll be the banks for your river
            G                C
I'll be the banks for your river
 
 
[Verse 2]
              F
You are beautiful and wild at every turn
            C
Who am I to take control of that?
          F
Everybody needs a voice they can follow
               C
When the water and the winds get bad
                    F
You know my love is not the jealous type
                  C
It doesn't matter if we win or lose
                   F
So I could stay or I could come
                              G
No matter where you're coming from
              C    N.C.
Long as I can flow along with you
 
 
[Chorus]
C            F        C                Am
(Oh) I wanna hold you close, but never hold you back
              G
Just like the banks do the river
C               F    C                 Am
(Oh) And if you ever feel like you are not enough
          G              C
I'm gonna break all your mirrors
             F                 C        Am
(Oh) I wanna be there when the darkness closes in
            G
To make the truth a little clearer
C            F        C                Am
(Oh) I wanna hold you close, but never hold you back
            G                  C   F C Am
I'll be the banks for your river
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
            G                C    F C Am
I'll be the banks for your river
            G                C
I'll be the banks for your river
 
 
[Bridge]
Em            F                     C
Baby, I ain't saying that you need my help
Em                   F          C
But you ain't got to do it all by yourself
Em                 F
So, baby, when the current gets strong
    C
You need somewhere to rest your bones
           G
I wanna be there for you
                           N.C.
I wanna be strong for you, oh
 
 
[Chorus]
C            F        C                Am
(Oh) I wanna hold you close, but never hold you back
              G
Just like the banks do the river
C               F    C                 Am
(Oh) And if you ever feel like you are not enough
          G              C
I'm gonna break all your mirrors
             F                 C        Am
(Oh) I wanna be there when the darkness closes in
            G
To make the truth a little clearer
C            F        C                Am
(Oh) I wanna hold you close, but never hold you back
            G                            C      F   C Am
I'll be the banks, be the banks for your river, yeah
 
 
[Outro]
            G                  C   F C Am
I'll be the banks for your river
            C
I'll be the banks for your river
