VERSE 1: [A#add9][Dm7][G7sus4] If life is a [C] river, [G7sus4] and your heart is a [C] boat [F] And just [F/E] like a [Dm] water baby, baby [A#] born to [C] float [G7sus4] And if life is a [C] wild wind that [G7sus4] blows way on [C] high [F] And your [F/E] heart is A-[Dm]-melia [A#] dying to [C] fly
CHORUS: [A#] Heaven [C] knows [Am7] no fron-[D]-tiers [A#] And I've seen [C] heaven in your [A#add9] eyes [Dm7][G7sus4]
VERSE 2:
And if life is a [C] bar room, in [G7sus4] which we must [C] wait [F] Round the [F/E] man with his [Dm] fingers on the [A#] ivory [C] gates [G7sus4] Where we sing until [C] dawn, of our [G7sus4] fears and our [C] fates [F] And we [F/E] stack all the [Dm] dead men in [A#] self addressed [C] crates
BRIDGE:
In your [F] eyes, faint as the singing of a [C] lark
That [Am] somehow this black [Dm] night
Feels warmer for the [A#] spark, warmer for the [F] spark
To hold us 'til the [C] day, when [Am] fear will lose its [Dm] grip
And heaven has its [A#] ways
VERSE 3:
If your life is a [C] rough bed, of [G7sus4] brambles and [C] nails [F] And your [F/E] spirit's a [Dm] slave to man's [A#] whips and man's [C] jails [G7sus4] Where you thirst and you [C] hunger for [G7sus4] justice and [C] right [F] And your [F/E] heart is a [Dm] pure flame of [A#] man's constant [C] night
