[Intro]
E Asus2 E Asus2

[Verse]
E                                          
Been traveling these wide roads for so long
                Asus2       
My heart’s been far from you
                       E
Ten-thousand miles gone

Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
                Asus2
Every part of me
But there's blood on my hands
                       E
And my lips are unclean
In my darkness I remember
                           Asus2
Momma’s words reoccur to me
"Surrender to the good Lord
                             F#m
And he’ll wipe your slate clean"

[Chorus]
                     F#m
Take me to your river
        E 
I wanna go
          F#m
Oh-oh-oh- oh
                   F#m
Take me to your river
        E   
I wanna know

[Verse]
E                           
Dip me in your smooth waters
I go in
     Asus2               
As a man with many crimes
Come up for air
                         E     
As my sins flow down the Jordan
Oh, I wanna come near and give ya
                Asus2
Every part of me
But there is blood on my hands
                    F#m
And my lips are unclean

[Chorus]
                   F#m
Take me to your river
        E 
I wanna go
          F#m
Oh-oh-oh-oh
                     F#m
Take me to your river
        E   
I wanna know

[Bridge]
        E                     
I wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
         Asus2                      
I wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
        E                 E 
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
      Asus2                       
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know
      E                     
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
      Asus2                       F#m
Wanna know, wanna know, wanna know

[Chorus]
                     F#m
Take me to your river
        E 
I wanna go
                    F#m 
Lord, please let me know
                    F#m
Take me to your river
        E   
I wanna know
