Verse 1:
Bbm                          Gb
  Met a Ghost of a King on a road when I first felt
Ebm           Db                 Db   Db
  fire burnin' to my knees to my knees I fell
Bbm                          Gb  Ebm             Db Db   Db
  Met a Ghost of a King on a road words of fire

Bbm                   Gb
  He said, "You are a lonely soul
         Ebm                 Db                 Db   Db
  With a heart of stone that rakes against your thirsty bones
Bbm      Gb            Ebm   Db Db   Db
  Such a lonely soul"

Pre-chorus:
             Gb
Said, "I can show you what can save you
       Ab
But we need to go"

Chorus:
        Bbm Gb   Ab
Where no chariot can take you
Bbm         Gb           Ab
Where the river meets the sand
   Bbm         Gb             Ab
There is water there that can quench your thirsty bones
            Bbm   Gb       Ebm   Db Db   Db
And make you well, make you well

Verse 2:
Bbm                           Gb
  So I followed the Ghost of a King with every step
   Ebm               Db                    Db   Db
  I tried to see beyond for a trace of the riverside
Bbm           Gb          Ebm  Db Db   Db
  But restlessness was my prize

Bbm                       Gb
  And then we came upon a golden shore
          Ebm                  Db            Db   Db
  But the Voice of fire wasn’t coming from a ghost no more
Bbm           Gb        Ebm   Db Db   Db
  My heart of stone came alive

Pre-chorus:
        Gb
When my eyes were opened up
      Ab
And I saw that I had come

Chorus:
        Bbm Gb   Ab
Where no chariot can take you
Bbm         Gb           Ab
Where the river meets the sand
   Bbm         Gb             Ab
There is water there that can quench your thirsty bones
            Bbm   Gb        Ab
And make you well, make you well

Bridge:
Ebm                     Gb
  So I knelt beside the river and I drank until,
    Bbm                          Ab
  I drank until, I drank until, I died
Ebm                    Gb
  But something in the water must have brought me back,
     Bbm                                   Ab    Gb   Ab
  it brought me back, it brought me back to life

Chorus:
        Bbm Gb   Ab
Where no chariot can take you
Bbm         Gb           Ab
Where the river meets the sand
   Bbm         Gb             Ab
There is water there that can quench your thirsty bones
            Bbm   Gb        Ab
And make you well, make you well

        Bbm Gb   Ab
Where no chariot can take you
Bbm         Gb           Ab
Where the river meets the sand
   Bbm         Gb             Ab
There is water there that can quench your thirsty bones
            Bbm   Gb       Ebm   Db Db   Db
And make you well, make you well
