Harlem River Lyrics

Harlem River, talk to me
Tell me what you think about
Harlem River I'm in love, love, love, love
Harlem River talk to me!
Where we heading now?
Harlem River I'm in love, love, love, love
All because of you!
(drum and bass kick in here)
In my pearl and my diamond shoes
I've climbed the cloud that will store the moon
On the river
All because of you!
POST-VERSE
Ooooh, ooooh
And Harlem River swallow me
Put your hands around my neck
And Harlem River, I can't breath
You've got the lights down now
And Harlem River, give me wings
Put my head up in the clouds
And Harlem River all because
Oh, I know where now
Harlem River, tell me, is it true?
That in my pearl and my diamond shoes
I've climbed the cloud, now I stole the moon
Harlem River, all because of you!
POST-CHORUS
- then back to the main chords:
Oooh, oooh
I don't know, I don't know
Just where I'm going
'Cause I've never been
And I don't know, I don't know
Just where I'm going
Or where I've been
Oh, Harlem River, like a diamond
/-repeat-\
And ride on that easy rider
Flow like that Harlem River
Ride on that easy rider
Flow like that Harlem River
I ride for you
I ride for you
I ride for you
I ride for you
- you could consider the last three minutes as a big outro. Not much changes in here, the only notable
variations are tabbed below:
(6:43-7:00)
(7:44-7:49)
You only play the C#m here for a short bit.
(7:50-8:30)
Instead of an E, you play a Dm, so like this:
C#m Dm (again, listen to the song to get the rhythm right)
(8:31-end)
From here it's just back to the main chords (C#m E) till the end.
