Walkin' Jim Stoltz River Runnin' Through It
G Bm C
1) There's a wild wind blowin' o'er the mountain,
G Bm D
Untouched land as far as I can see,
C Bm G Em
And it's touchin' deep inside, a stream swellin' deep
with pride,
C Am D
It's a feelin' growin' wild thats here in me.
2) It's a feelin' that's flowin' like a river, Hard to
say exactly what that means,
It's a tie that really binds, to the Earth and all her
kind,
Time to swap those dollar signs for dreams.
Chorus:
G Em C D
There's a river runnin' through it, and it flows
through you and me,
G Bm C D
Through the wild in us all, stretchin' far as I can
see,
C Bm G Em
There's a river runnin' through it, and its flowin'
sweet and strong,
G Em C Em
It's the feelin' in our souls that the sleepin'
mountain knows,
C D G
It's a freedom, it's a spirit, it's a song.
3) In the wild there's a spirit still a-livin',
Each crimson sunset serves to make it strong,
It's for all that ever roamed and the magic I have
known,
And I dare to say its been there all along.
(Chorus)
4) There's a song for you if you listen,
In the river, on the mountain, or the plain,
It's a song for the heart and its there right from the
start,
Singin' through the sunshine and the rain.
(Final Chorus)
