[Intro]

(8 bars), 
| C    | C    | F    | F    |

[Verse]
C                          F 
  We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill
       Bb            F 
As the day begs the night
    C 
for mercy, love
C                                F 
  The sun so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars
Bb          F 
Carved into stone
       C 
On the face of it
C                         F 
  The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
           Bb     F            C 
We see the sun go down in your eyes
[Chorus]
               Bb    F        C 
You run like a river, on like the sea
               Bb   F            C 
You run like a river runs to the sea 
[Verse]
C                              F 
  And in the world a heart of darkness, a fire-zone
      Bb                F 
Where poets speak their heart
     C 
Then bleed for it
C                       F 
  Jara sang, his song a weapon, in the hands of one
             Bb           F 
You know his blood still cries
         C 
From the ground
[Chorus]
               Bb    F        C 
It runs like a river runs to the sea
               Bb   F        C 
It runs like a river to the sea
[Instrumental]
| C    | C    | F    | F    | 
| C    | C    | C    | C    | 
| C    | C    | F    | F    | 
| Bb   | F    | C    | C    |
[Verse]
C                            F 
  I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts
      Bb               F            C 
While bullets rape the night of the merciful
C 
  I'll see you again
         F 
When the stars fall from the sky
        Bb               F 
And the moon has turned red
     C 
Over One Tree Hill
[Outro]
              Bb   F         C 
We run like a river runs to the sea
              Bb   F      C 
We run like a river to the sea
              Bb      F 
And when it's raining
        C 
Raining hard
                Bb        F 
That's when the rain will
         C 
Break the heart
Bb       F 
Raining, rainin’ in the heart,
C 
rainin’ in your heart,
Bb       F 
Raining, rain into your heart,
C 
rainin’, rainin’,    rainin’
Bb                F 
   Rain into your heart,
C 
rainin’  woo!
Bb    F    C
C         F      Bb  F     C 
Oh, great ocean. Oh, great sea.
C          F      Bb  F      C 
Run to the ocean. Run to the sea.
