VERSE 1: [Aadd9][C#m7][F#7sus4] If life is a [B] river, [F#7sus4] and your heart is a [B] boat [E] And just [E/D#] like a [C#m] water baby, baby [A] born to [B] float [F#7sus4] And if life is a [B] wild wind that [F#7sus4] blows way on [B] high [E] And your [E/D#] heart is A-[C#m]-melia [A] dying to [B] fly
CHORUS: [A] Heaven [B] knows [G#m7] no fron-[C#]-tiers [A] And I've seen [B] heaven in your [Aadd9] eyes [C#m7][F#7sus4]
VERSE 2:
And if life is a [B] bar room, in [F#7sus4] which we must [B] wait [E] Round the [E/D#] man with his [C#m] fingers on the [A] ivory [B] gates [F#7sus4] Where we sing until [B] dawn, of our [F#7sus4] fears and our [B] fates [E] And we [E/D#] stack all the [C#m] dead men in [A] self addressed [B] crates
BRIDGE:
In your [E] eyes, faint as the singing of a [B] lark
That [G#m] somehow this black [C#m] night
Feels warmer for the [A] spark, warmer for the [E] spark
To hold us 'til the [B] day, when [G#m] fear will lose its [C#m] grip
And heaven has its [A] ways
VERSE 3:
If your life is a [B] rough bed, of [F#7sus4] brambles and [B] nails [E] And your [E/D#] spirit's a [C#m] slave to man's [A] whips and man's [B] jails [F#7sus4] Where you thirst and you [B] hunger for [F#7sus4] justice and [B] right [E] And your [E/D#] heart is a [C#m] pure flame of [A] man's constant [B] night
