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

VERSE 1:
[Dadd9] [F#m7] [B7sus4] If life is a [E] river, [B7sus4] and your heart is a [E] boat
[A] And just [A/G#] like a [F#m] water baby, baby [D] born to [E] float
[B7sus4] And if life is a [E] wild wind that [B7sus4] blows way on [E] high
[A] And your [A/G#] heart is A-[F#m]-melia [D] dying to [E] fly

CHORUS:
[D] Heaven [E] knows [C#m7] no fron-[F#]-tiers
[D] And I've seen [E] heaven in your [Dadd9] eyes [F#m7] [B7sus4]

VERSE 2:
And if life is a [E] bar room, in [B7sus4] which we must [E] wait
[A] Round the [A/G#] man with his [F#m] fingers on the [D] ivory [E] gates
[B7sus4] Where we sing until [E] dawn, of our [B7sus4] fears and our [E] fates
[A] And we [A/G#] stack all the [F#m] dead men in [D] self addressed [E] crates

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

INSTRUMENTAL: [Dadd9] [E] [C#m7] [F#] / [D] [E]

VERSE 3:
If your life is a [E] rough bed, of [B7sus4] brambles and [E] nails
[A] And your [A/G#] spirit's a [F#m] slave to man's [D] whips and man's [E] jails
[B7sus4] Where you thirst and you [E] hunger for [B7sus4] justice and [E] right
[A] And your [A/G#] heart is a [F#m] pure flame of [D] man's constant [E] night

REPEAT BRIDGE:

BRIDGE EXTENDED:
And heaven has its [A] ways, when all will harmon-[E]-ise
And you [C#m] know what's in our [F#m] hearts, the dream will real-[C#]-ise

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
