VERSE 1: [Gadd9][Bm7][E7sus4] If life is a [A] river, [E7sus4] and your heart is a [A] boat [D] And just [D/C#] like a [Bm] water baby, baby [G] born to [A] float [E7sus4] And if life is a [A] wild wind that [E7sus4] blows way on [A] high [D] And your [D/C#] heart is A-[Bm]-melia [G] dying to [A] fly
CHORUS: [G] Heaven [A] knows [F#m7] no fron-[B]-tiers [G] And I've seen [A] heaven in your [Gadd9] eyes [Bm7][E7sus4]
VERSE 2:
And if life is a [A] bar room, in [E7sus4] which we must [A] wait [D] Round the [D/C#] man with his [Bm] fingers on the [G] ivory [A] gates [E7sus4] Where we sing until [A] dawn, of our [E7sus4] fears and our [A] fates [D] And we [D/C#] stack all the [Bm] dead men in [G] self addressed [A] crates
BRIDGE:
In your [D] eyes, faint as the singing of a [A] lark
That [F#m] somehow this black [Bm] night
Feels warmer for the [G] spark, warmer for the [D] spark
To hold us 'til the [A] day, when [F#m] fear will lose its [Bm] grip
And heaven has its [G] ways
VERSE 3:
If your life is a [A] rough bed, of [E7sus4] brambles and [A] nails [D] And your [D/C#] spirit's a [Bm] slave to man's [G] whips and man's [A] jails [E7sus4] Where you thirst and you [A] hunger for [E7sus4] justice and [A] right [D] And your [D/C#] heart is a [Bm] pure flame of [G] man's constant [A] night
