This River Is Wild Chords - The Killers






Haven't seen the chords for this song anywhere so I decided to do it on my own. It 
was kinda hard to get the chords right, but just listen to the song while you play 
it the first times and you will get it. By the way, I wasn't good enough to find 
out the chords for the outro. Sorry for that. 

Any questions? Email alexnvl@hotmail.com

Intro (this might look tricky but you simply play each chord for each note):

And cars are everywhere
Raisin' dust at the fairground
I don't think I ever seen so many headlights
But there's somethin' pullin' me
The circus and the crew
Well they're just passin' through
Makin' sure the merry still goes 'round
But it's a long, long, long way down
