Mary Black, No Frontiers (1989)
^{Key: :[C] (w: Jimmy McCarthy)}

VERSE 1:
[Cadd9] [Em7] [A7sus4] If life is a [D] river, [A7sus4] and your heart is a [D] boat
[G] And just [G/F#] like a [Em] water baby, baby [C] born to [D] float
[A7sus4] And if life is a [D] wild wind that [A7sus4] blows way on [D] high
[G] And your [G/F#] heart is A-[Em]-melia [C] dying to [D] fly

CHORUS:
[C] Heaven [D] knows [Bm7] no fron-[E]-tiers
[C] And I've seen [D] heaven in your [Cadd9] eyes [Em7] [A7sus4]

VERSE 2:
And if life is a [D] bar room, in [A7sus4] which we must [D] wait
[G] Round the [G/F#] man with his [Em] fingers on the [C] ivory [D] gates
[A7sus4] Where we sing until [D] dawn, of our [A7sus4] fears and our [D] fates
[G] And we [G/F#] stack all the [Em] dead men in [C] self addressed [D] crates

BRIDGE:
In your [G] eyes, faint as the singing of a [D] lark
That [Bm] somehow this black [Em] night
Feels warmer for the [C] spark, warmer for the [G] spark
To hold us 'til the [D] day, when [Bm] fear will lose its [Em] grip
And heaven has its [C] ways

REPEAT CHORUS:

INSTRUMENTAL: [Cadd9] [D] [Bm7] [E] / [C] [D]

VERSE 3:
If your life is a [D] rough bed, of [A7sus4] brambles and [D] nails
[G] And your [G/F#] spirit's a [Em] slave to man's [C] whips and man's [D] jails
[A7sus4] Where you thirst and you [D] hunger for [A7sus4] justice and [D] right
[G] And your [G/F#] heart is a [Em] pure flame of [C] man's constant [D] night

REPEAT BRIDGE:

BRIDGE EXTENDED:
And heaven has its [G] ways, when all will harmon-[D]-ise
And you [Bm] know what's in our [Em] hearts, the dream will real-[B]-ise

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
