The Cool Cool RiverCifra de Teclado

F#m                                
Moves like a fist through traffic  

                              
Anger and no one can heal it  

        
Shoves a little bump into the momentum  

      
It's just a little lump  

                           
But you feel it in the...  

F#m G#m        A           G#m   F#m G#m A G#m  
        In the creases and the shadows  

F#m G#m        A             G#mF#m G#m A G#m  
        With a rattling deep emo-tion  

F#m     G#m  A G#m F#m G#m A G#m  
    The cool,  cool riv-er  

F#m G#m        A     G#m   F#m G#m A G#m  
    Sweeps the wild, white ocean

Yes Boss. The government handshake  

                                   
Yes Boss. The crusher of language  


Yes Boss. Mr. Stillwater,  

                                    
The face at the edge of the banquet  

F#m G#m     A    G#m    F#m  G#m A G#m  
        The cool,    the cool riv-er

        I believe in the  future  

D/A  A   D/A    A E9(11)/B   
I may live    in my car  

       F#m/A   
My radio tuned to  

D/A A    D/A A     E9(11)/B   
The  voice      of a star  

                                        
Song dogs barking at the break of dawn  

F#m/A                          D/A         A D/A A   
Lightning pushes the edge of a thunderstorm  

E9(11)/B                               
             And these old hopes and fears  

F#m/A             D/A A D/A A   F#m     
      Still at my side  


F#m                           
Anger and no one can heal it  

                                   
Slides through the metal detector  

                             
Lives like a mole in a motel  

                             
A slide in a slide projector  


F#m     G#m  A G#m F#m  G#m A G#m  
    The cool,       cool riv-er  

F#m G#m   A     G#m        F#m  G#m A G#m  
    Sweeps  the wild, white ocean  

F#m     G#m  A     G#m    F#m  G#m   A     G#m  
    The rage,  the rage of love turns inward  

F#m G#m    A       G#m F#m   G#m A G#m  
        To prayers of devotion  

F#m  
    And these prayers are  

                                        
The constant road across the wilderness  

                   
These prayers are  

                      F#m G#m A G#m F#m G#m A    G#m  
 These prayers are the memory                   of God  

F#m G#m A G#m    F#m G#m A G#mF#m         
              The memory            of God  


       E9(11)/B F#m/A   
And I believe in the  future  

D/A     A   D/A        A         
We shall         suffer no more  

E9(11)/B               F#m/A   
             Maybe not in my lifetime  

D/A       A     D/A A       E9(11)/B   
    But in yours       I feel sure  


                                        
Song dogs barking at the break of dawn  

F#m/A                          D/A         A D/A A   
Lightning pushes the edge of a thunderstorm  


E9(11)/B          D    
             And these streets  

          A   
Quiet as a sleeping army  

          E7/G#             A      D/A            
Send their battered dreams to heaven,     to heaven  

                  E/B     A  
 For the mother's restless son  

                            D/A      
Who is a witness to, who is a warrior  

                     E/BA    
 Who denies his urge to  break and run  


            
Who says: Hard times?  

                  
I'm used to them  

D/A                         
    The speeding planet burns  

                  
I'm used to that  

                     E/B    A  
 My life's so common it disappears  

            D/A             
And sometimes     even music  

              E/B     A        
 Cannot substitute for   tears
