The Riverboat Song
Ocean Colour Scene
Key : Bm
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
Bm | Em | Bm | F# 
Bm

[Verse 1]
---------------------
      Bm
I see double up ahead
          Em
Where the riverboat
Swayed beneath the sun
                        Bm
Is where the river runs red
       Em
Like a king who stalks
The wings and shoots a dove
                      Bm
And frees an eagle instead
F#                    G
It's more or less the same
       A
As the things that you said

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Bm      Bm
  I see trouble up the road
         Em
Like the things you found
In love are by the way
                          Bm
And like to cheat on your soul
         Em
Like the best and worst
Of thoughts that lose control
                       Bm
Before you lie on your bed
F#                    G
It's more or less the same
       A
As the things that you said

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Bm          D                       E
  And anyway for all the things you know
        A                      Bm
Tell me why does the river not flow
      D                       E
Anyway for all the things you said
        A                      Bm
Tell me why does the river run red
          D                          E
And anyway for all the things you've seen
        A                       Bm
Tell me when will the river run green
          D                       E
And anyway for all the things you know
        A                      Bm  Bm
Tell me why does the river not flow

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Em
It's more or less the things
                                        Bm
You fail to say in your way that's your trouble
       Em
Like a king who stalks the wings
And shoots the moon and the stars
        Bm
And his double
F#                      G           A
It’s more or less the same as the things that you said

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Bm      D                       E
  Anyway for all the things you know
        A                      Bm
Tell me why does the river not flow
      D                       E
Anyway for all the things you said
        A                      Bm
Tell me why does the river run red
      D                          E
Anyway for all the things you've seen
        A                       Bm
Tell me when will the river run green
          D                       E
And anyway for all the things you know
        A                      Bm  Bm
Tell me why does the river not flow

[Verse 4]
---------------------
      Bm
I see double up ahead
          Em
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
                        Bm
Is where the river runs red
      F#                Bm     Bm
I see double, that's my trouble
