Pick Up The Oars And Row
Recorded by Randy Travis
Written by Jamie O'Hara

C
What good does it do to hold onto 
    F                  C
The anger deep in your heart

You're the only one that it's hurting 
           G7
You're the one that it's tearing apart

    C
I'm sorry that he broke your heart girl 
         F              C
But it's time to let it go

Sometimes love is a river of tears 
   G7                   C
So pick up the oars and row


He shattered your expectations 
   F                      C
He broke all his promises too

With his little white lies he looked in your eyes 
    G7
And made you believe they were true

       C
Aw but this ain't the final curtain  
          F                       C
Girl it's time to get on with the show

Sometimes love is a river of tears 
   G7                   C
So pick up the oars and row

     F
It's been far too long now 
C
Since I've seen your smile
     G7
Your bitterness don't look good on you 
         C
And self-pity just ain't your style

F
Sooner or later you know 
              C
You've got to play the card you've drawn
G7
It's all up to you you can stay blue 
                C
Or you can move on

Ain't it hard when you discover  
       F                                 C
Things ain't what you thought they would be

When all of your best played plans 
        G7
Hit the wall of reality

      C
Still all in all it's a good life 
       F                     C
But it sure can be painful I know

Sometimes love is a river of tears 
   G7                   C
So pick up the oars and row


Sometimes love is a river of tears 
   G7                   C
So pick up the oars and go
