D                            A
Haven't heard your voice in quite a while
D                          A
Haven't seen you dance or seen you smile
F#m            Em
I can go days where nothing is wrong
F#m                      Em
But it just doesn't last very long

[Chorus]
A                   D
Every time I see a river
A                     D
Every time I hear a train
A                        D
Every time I hear a sad song
A                             A7
It reminds me of what we had then
N.C                        G    F#m  Em   A
Every time I see a river,( ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh )
A                            D
Feels like I'm back in love again

[Instrumental]
A D A

[Verse 2]
D                                A
My life seems together and I'm doing just fine
D                                A
But I remember when I was yours and you were mine
F#m                           Em
I don't need your picture on the wall
F#m                   Em
I don't need anything at all

[Chorus]
A                       D
But every time I see a river
A                    D
Every time I hear a train
A                        D
Every time I hear a sad song
A                            A7
It reminds me of what we had then
N.C.                        G   F#m  Em   A
Every time I see a river,( ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh )
A                            D
Feels like I'm back in love again
A                       D
I just can't stand the pain

[Instrumental]

F#m Em F#m Em

[Verse 3]
D                             A
Haven't heard your voice in quite a while
D                          A
Haven't seen you dance or seen you smile
F#m             Em
I can go days nothing is wrong
F#m            Em
It just don't last for very long

[Chorus]
A                   D
Every time I see a river
A                    D
Every time I hear a train
A                    D
Every time I hear a sad song
Em                      A             A  A7
I remember what we had then, we had then
N.C.                        G    F#m  Em   A
Every time I see a river, ( ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh )
A                            D
Feels like I'm back in love again
A                         D
I just can't stand it no more
A                  D
Can't stand it no more

[Outro]
A                   D
Every time I see a river
A
Running, running, running, running, running, running, running
D
Running and running and running and running and running and running
A                   D
Running away every time I see a river
A                D
Can't stand the pain
A                   D
Feel like I'm back there again...
