G     Em     C
Bathe
[Verse 1]
G
Like a bird
               Em
Through prison bars
    C
I'm escaping
    G
And behind me on the long
Em
Highway
                   C
Lies all that I've forsaken
Bm   Bb     F
Cool river, flow
Cm            Bb
I am bound to where ever
    D
You go

[Chorus]
          G
I'm gonna bathe
       D C
In the river
      G
Gonna hold my head up
       D C
In the river
          Em
Not gonna worry anymore
      Dm                C
Gonna reach that golden shore

[Verse 2]
G             Em
I don't feel afraid
          C
For now I see
     G      Em
That if I believe
       C
I will be free
Bm   Bb     F
Wide river, flow
          Cm        Bb
I'm gonna learn whatever
    D
You know

[Chorus]
          G
I'm gonna bathe
       D C
In the river
      G
Gonna hold my head up
       D C
In the river
          Em
Not gonna worry anymore
      Dm                C
Gonna reach that golden shore

[Bridge]
Am     G
Mighty river
F         D       Am
Hear that rushin' sound
           G
Cool clear water
F      D      E
Lay my burden down

{Chorus]
A
Bathe
       E D
In the river
      A
Gonna hold my head up
       E D
In the river
          F#m
Not gonna worry anymore
      Em                D
Gonna reach that golden shore
G
Bathe
