Holding on dear river to my skin
Whispering the places you have been
A E
And I look back upstream
Everybody knows the river comes

The river goes but you stopped here
Fm A E
You stopped here for me
Fm A
You took my heart in tow
Fm C#m B
How could I let you go
Chorus:
E Fm
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
A E
Keep up, keep up with you
Fm
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
A E
Keep up, keep up with you

Verse:
E
Rolling on dear river does it end
I saw you though the canyon and the bend
A E
Did you look back for me
I could fight the flow
And tug of war the undertow
A Fm A E
But I’d never, not ever succeed
Fm A
So when you’re out to sea
Fm C#m B
I hope you think of me
Chorus:
E Fm
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
A E
Keep up, keep up with you
Fm
I doubt anyone can keep up
Keep up, keep up
A E
Keep up, keep up with you
