VERSE 1: [C#add9][Fm7][A#7sus4] If life is a [D#] river, [A#7sus4] and your heart is a [D#] boat [G#] And just [G#/G] like a [Fm] water baby, baby [C#] born to [D#] float [A#7sus4] And if life is a [D#] wild wind that [A#7sus4] blows way on [D#] high [G#] And your [G#/G] heart is A-[Fm]-melia [C#] dying to [D#] fly
CHORUS: [C#] Heaven [D#] knows [Cm7] no fron-[F]-tiers [C#] And I've seen [D#] heaven in your [C#add9] eyes [Fm7][A#7sus4]
VERSE 2:
And if life is a [D#] bar room, in [A#7sus4] which we must [D#] wait [G#] Round the [G#/G] man with his [Fm] fingers on the [C#] ivory [D#] gates [A#7sus4] Where we sing until [D#] dawn, of our [A#7sus4] fears and our [D#] fates [G#] And we [G#/G] stack all the [Fm] dead men in [C#] self addressed [D#] crates
BRIDGE:
In your [G#] eyes, faint as the singing of a [D#] lark
That [Cm] somehow this black [Fm] night
Feels warmer for the [C#] spark, warmer for the [G#] spark
To hold us 'til the [D#] day, when [Cm] fear will lose its [Fm] grip
And heaven has its [C#] ways
VERSE 3:
If your life is a [D#] rough bed, of [A#7sus4] brambles and [D#] nails [G#] And your [G#/G] spirit's a [Fm] slave to man's [C#] whips and man's [D#] jails [A#7sus4] Where you thirst and you [D#] hunger for [A#7sus4] justice and [D#] right [G#] And your [G#/G] heart is a [Fm] pure flame of [C#] man's constant [D#] night
