Boat on the River
Verse 1:
(Dm)Take me down to my boat on the river
I (C)need to go down, I (A)need to come down
(Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
Verse 2:
(Dm)Time stands still as I gaze in her waters
She (C)eases me down, (A)touching me gently
With the (Dm)waters that flow past my boat on the river
So (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
Chorus 1:
Oh the (C)river is wide
The river it touches my (Dm)life
like the waves on the (G)sand
And (Gm)all roads lead to (Dm)tranquility base
Where the (E)frown on my face (A)disappears
(Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore (instr.)
Chorus 2:
Oh the (C)river is deep
The river it touches my (Dm)life
like the waves on the (G)sand
And (Gm)all roads lead to (Dm)tranquility base
Where the (E)frown on my face (A)disappears
(Dm)Take me back to my boat on the river
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
And (C)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore
And (A)I won't cry out (Dm)anymore.... (DmDmDm A-Dm)

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 STYX 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.
