  • I remember being richer than a king
    |Bb | Bb F/A
    The minutes of the day were golden
  • |Gm | Gm F/A
    I recall that when the joint passed 'round
    |Bb |
  • My body felt a little colder
     
    |Bb F/Bb |Bb F/Bb |
  • But now I'm like a sewer channel

    The sea refuses no river
    |Em |D C |G C/G |G
  • And right now this river's banks are blown
    |C/G |
    The sea refuses no river

  • The sea refuses no river
    | |C(no3)| |C6(A)| |C(no3)|C6(A) |Bb F/A |
    And this river is homeward flowing
  •  
    I have seen a trace of strain in other's eyes not spoken
    I must admit that I enjoyed their pain,
  • But this time it's me that's broken
    I demand for you and his, this must be the time
    When we decide what freedom is, turn water into wine
  •  
    [repeat chorus]
    For the sea refuses no river
  • We're polluted now, but in our hearts still clean
    The sea refuses no river
    We tried not to age, but time had its rage
  • We're washed over stones from babes into clones of the mean
    The sea refuses no river
    Won't deny this sulphorous stream
