Hold Back The River Chords

by James Bay
Verse 1: Mainly just played with the riff in the background

Tried to keep you close to me,


But life got in between
Tried to square not being there
But think that I should have been.

Chorus: Single strokes

F
Hold back the river let me look in your eyes
F
Hold back the river so I
Bb
Can stop for a minute and see where you hide
F
Hold back the river, hold back

Verse 2:

F Bb
Once upon a different life
F C
We rode our bikes into the sky
F Bb
Now we call against the tide
F C
Those distant days are flashing by

Chorus:

Bb
Hold back the river let me look in your eyes
Bb F
Hold back the river so I
Bb
Can stop for a minute and see where you hide
Bb C
Hold back the river, hold back

Refrain:

F F Bb F Bb F C
Hold oho, oho, oho, oho, oho, oho
F F Bb Bb
Lonely water, lonely water won't you let us wander, let us hold each other
F F Bb Bb
Lonely water, lonely water won't you let us wander, let us hold each other
