12-bar intro

Verse 1:
I don't know why I love you like I do
After all the things that you put me through.
You stole my money and my cigarettes,
And I haven't seen why I should forget.
I wanna know, won't you tell me?
I'd love to stay, yeag yeah

Chorus:
Take me to the river, wash me down.
Please my soul, put my feet on the ground.

8-bar break

Verse 2:
I don't know why she treat me so bad
After all the things that we could've had.
Love is a notion that I can't forget.
My sweet sixteen I will never regret,
I wanna know, won't you tell me?
I'd love to stay, I'd love to stay.

Repeat chorus

Bridge:
Hold me, love me, please me, squeeze me.
Oh, 'til I can't, 'til I can't, 'til I can't, I can't take no more.

Repeat chorus

Guitar solo

Repeat chorus

Vamp:
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
Take me, take me, take me to the river.
