VERSE 1: [G#add9][Cm7][F7sus4] If life is a [A#] river, [F7sus4] and your heart is a [A#] boat [D#] And just [D#/D] like a [Cm] water baby, baby [G#] born to [A#] float [F7sus4] And if life is a [A#] wild wind that [F7sus4] blows way on [A#] high [D#] And your [D#/D] heart is A-[Cm]-melia [G#] dying to [A#] fly
CHORUS: [G#] Heaven [A#] knows [Gm7] no fron-[C]-tiers [G#] And I've seen [A#] heaven in your [G#add9] eyes [Cm7][F7sus4]
VERSE 2:
And if life is a [A#] bar room, in [F7sus4] which we must [A#] wait [D#] Round the [D#/D] man with his [Cm] fingers on the [G#] ivory [A#] gates [F7sus4] Where we sing until [A#] dawn, of our [F7sus4] fears and our [A#] fates [D#] And we [D#/D] stack all the [Cm] dead men in [G#] self addressed [A#] crates
BRIDGE:
In your [D#] eyes, faint as the singing of a [A#] lark
That [Gm] somehow this black [Cm] night
Feels warmer for the [G#] spark, warmer for the [D#] spark
To hold us 'til the [A#] day, when [Gm] fear will lose its [Cm] grip
And heaven has its [G#] ways
VERSE 3:
If your life is a [A#] rough bed, of [F7sus4] brambles and [A#] nails [D#] And your [D#/D] spirit's a [Cm] slave to man's [G#] whips and man's [A#] jails [F7sus4] Where you thirst and you [A#] hunger for [F7sus4] justice and [A#] right [D#] And your [D#/D] heart is a [Cm] pure flame of [G#] man's constant [A#] night
