_ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [G] _ _ [D] If life is [Em] a river
_ [F] Your heart is [G] a boat
_ _ [C] And just [Am] like a water baby, [Dm] baby
born [G] to flow _
[D] And if life [Em] is a wild wind that [F] blows way on [G] high
_ [C]
And your heart is [Am] Amelia _ [Dm] _
dying to [G] fly
_ _ [F] _
[G] Heaven knows
_ [Em] No front
[A] _ _ [Dm] And I've [G] seen heaven in your eyes
[G] _ _ _
_ [D] And if life is a [Em] bar room in [F] which we [G] must wait _
[C] Run the man [Am] with his fingers on [Dm] the [G] irie gates
_ Where we sing until dawn
Of [F] our fears and our [G] faith
_ _ [C] And we stuck all [Am] the dead men [Dm] in
self-addressed [G] grates in your [C] eyes faint as a
singing of a [G] lark _
_ [E] Somehow this black [Am] night _
Feels warmer for the [F] spar _
_ [G] Warmer for the [C] spar to hold us till the [G] day _
[E] When fear will lose its [Am] grip _ and heaven has [F] its way _ [G] No
_ _ [E] _ _
_ [A] _ _ [Dm] And I've [G] seen heaven in [F] your eyes
_ [G] _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [Dm] Live your life [Em] is a rough bed
_ [F] _
Brambles and [G] names
_ _ [C] And your [Am] spirits a slave to [Dm] man's whips and [G] man's James
_ Where you thirst and you hunger _ [F] for justice and [G] right
_ _ [C] Then your heart is [Am] the pure flame [Dm] of man's constant [G] night in your
[C] eyes faint as a
singing of a
[G] _ _
[E] nut somehow this black [Am] night _
Feels [G] warmer for the [F] spar _
_ [G] Warmer for the [C] spar
To hold us till the [G] day _
[E] When fear will lose its [Am] grip in [G] heaven has [F] its way
And heaven has [C] its way _
When [Am] all
_ [G] _
No
[E] _ _ _ [Am] The _ [G] dream will [F] realize _
_ [G] _ _ [E] And _
_ [A] _ _ _ [Dm] _
I've [G] seen heaven in [F] your eyes
[G] _ _ _ [Em] _ [E] _
_ [A] _ _ _ [Dm] _
And I've [G] seen heaven in [F] your _ _ _ eyes _ _
