Riverwatching

This is a non-album song that is featured on Genevas first single "No
one speaks". Although the album is very good, this is their finest
moment so far in my book. I have just written down the chords, so there
is a bit of a job for you as well if you want to play it correctly, but
it sounds almost as nice as the original if you just pick along with the
chords.
C#m E A Hm
Moonlight is spanning down
E C D
it is such a beautiful night
C#m E A Hm
the river is so calm
E C D
resting now under the searchlight
G G/F# D
lurking still they haven't found a place
Am G D
looking for it's face
G G/F# D
all this time the river flowing slow
Am G F D
soon there is no place to go but down
thinking of a beautiful boy
eyes reflecting in the moonlight
the river is so calm
staying with him throught the night
lurking still they haven't found a place
looking for it's face
all this time the river flowing slow
soon there is no place to go but down
it could tell a long time ago
something in his face let me know
many men escaped their mud
watch them give up, life still goes on
lurking still they haven't found a place
staring at it's grace
all this time the river flowing slow
soon there is no place to go but down
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official GENEVA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
