Verse: 
           C 
There’s a heart here cast in stone 
               G 
And there’s a past, dear, I must atone 
               Am                Em 
Oh there were moments I've thrust away 
               F                G 
Now there’s a keeper that I must pay 

               C 
So here’s the scythe now and here’s the soil 
                G 
And here’s the seed, dear, that I must toil 
             Am             Em           F 
To heal the orchard from the cold, dead earth 

Pre-Chorus: 
         Dm 
Well I’m sorry, love, for all I have undone 
        G 
And I’m sorry, dear, for what I have become 

 
C 
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 

Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 
F                                                       
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 

Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 
C 
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 
Em 
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 
Am                      G 
Down to the river we’ll go - to the river we’ll go 
F 
Down 

Verse: 
           C 
Oh these weathered, old hands of mine 
                 G 
They have grown weary over time 
             Am                   Em 
This ageing heart now, it’s in the slow 
                F                       G 
But, dear, its beating still stands to grow 

            C 
And oh the years, dear, they’ll be harsh and long 
             G 
But I will go out and sing your songs 
           Am               Em             F 
Over the mountains, on the hills and the streams 

Pre-Chorus:
