That Was a River
(Susan Longacre/Rick Giles; as sung by Collin Raye)


(G) C D C G
I've seen that look before; here comes that doubt again
C D C G
You think that girl we saw was more than just a friend
G Em C
Yes there was a time I thought she had it all
D C G
She meant the world to me, back when the world was small


C D C G
That was a river, this is the ocean
C D C G
That never carried this much emotion
C G
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
C D C G
That was a river, this is the ocean


Key change (up a whole step)

It's just you and me, just one ship in the night

There are no boundaries, there is no end in sight


D E D A
That was a river, this is the ocean
D E D A
That never carried this much emotion

That was a river, this is the ocean

Nothing compares to this deep devotion

That was a river, this is the ocean
