Chords for Billie Marten / Ribbon / Official Video

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ Ribbon of the river by my side _ _ I walk the shores and watch it unwind _ _ _
The railway tracks still leave a glimpse of the [F#] light _ _
From the train trailing sparks of gold behind
_ _ [D] And as soon [A] as [B] you've seen it, it's gone
_ _ [D] And as soon [A] as you've seen it, it's [B] gone
_ _ _ [D] _ _
_ Secrets [F#m] of the city make [D] _ _ it naked in [A] my _ heart
_ [D] _ And the mysteries [F#m] that tease me so
[D] I long to belong [A] but I always have to [B] go
_ _ _ [F#m] People stare [F#] and wonder where's J
_ _ [Bm] _ [F#m] They don't understand that [B] wandering's my way _
[F#m] I'll never stop, no [F#] time for slipping away _
The elusive light shining strange on [B] my [B] face
_ [D] And as soon [A] as you've seen it, [B] it's gone
_ [D] And as soon [A] as you've seen [B] it, it's gone
_ _ _ [D] _ _
_ Secrets of [F#m] the city _ [F#] _
[D] make it naked in [A] my heart
_ [D] _ And the mysteries [G#] that tease me [F#m] so
[D] I long to [A] belong but I always have to [B] go
_ _ [D] Home ties me [C#m] up with _ [Bm] discontent
_ _ _ [D]
Since the [C#m] day I first [Bm] went _ _
_ _ [D] Yearning to [C#m] be [B] back again
_ _ _ [D] How will I [C#m]
return [B] and when?
_ [D] _ _
_ Secrets [F#m] of the city
_ [F#] _
[D] _ make it naked [A] in my _ heart
_ [D] _ And the mysteries [G#] that tease [F#] me so
[D] I long to [C#m] belong but I always have [B] to go _ _ _ _ _ _
