[C]I [G]keep [Em]going to the [D]river to [C]pray
'Cause I [G]need [Em]something that can [D]wash all the [C]pain

But your [G]ghost, the [Em]ghost of you it [D]keeps me awake
Verse 1
My friends had you [Em]figured out
Yeah they saw what's inside of you
Trying to hide in [C]another you
But your evil was [Am]coming through
These guys sitting [Em]on the wall
They watch every move I make
Bright light living [C]in the shade
You go hard makes the [Am]spirit shake
Pre-Chorus
[G]I had to [Am]go through hell to prove
I'm [Em]not insane
Had to [C]meet the devil just to know his name
And that's where my [D]love was burning
Yeah it's still burning

Verse 2
Each time that I [Em]think you go
I turn around and you're creeping in
And I let you [C]under my skin
'Cause I love living [Am]in a sin
Boy you never [Em]told me
True love was going to hurt
True pain that I [C]don't deserve
Truth is that I [Am]never learn

No more haunting [C]baby
I keep going to the river
