Feather On The Clyde chords
Passenger (from the album All The Little Lights)
Capo I *
D MajorD G+G B minorBm D MajorD G+G 2x
D MajorD G+G
Well, there s a river that runs through Glasgow
B minorBm D MajorD
And it makes up and it breaks up
G+G D MajorD
And it takes her in two parts
G+G D MajorD B minorBm
And the current just like my blood flows
G+G
Down from the hills
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Round aching bones to my restless heart
D MajorD G+G
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
Well, I would swim but the river is so wide
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
Scared I won t make it to the other side
G+G D MajorD
God knows that I ve failed,
B minorBm G+G
But he knows that I ve tried
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
I long for something that s safe and warm
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
But all I have is so often is gone
G+G D MajorD
And it s helpless and it s hopeless
A augmentedA D MajorD
As a feather on the Clyde
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G G+G B minorBm G+G D MajorD
G+G D MajorD
But on one side all the lights glow
B minorBm D MajorD
and the folks know when the kids go
G+G D MajorD
And the music and the drinking starts
G+G D MajorD
On the other side where no cars go
G+G B minorBm
Up to the hills that stand alone
G+G D MajorD
Like my restless heart
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
But, I would swim but the river is so wide
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
Scared I won t make it to the other side
G+G D MajorD
God knows that I ve failed,
B minorBm G+G
But he knows that I ve tried
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
I long for something that s safe and warm
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
But all I have is so often is gone
G+G D MajorD
And it s helpless and it s hopeless
A augmentedA D MajorD
As a feather on the Clyde
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD G+G G+G B minorBm G+G D MajorD 2x
D MajorD G+G
The sun sets late in Glasgow
B minorBm G+G
The daylight and the city part
B minorBm
And I think of you in Glasgow
G+G B minorBm G+G
Your always safe, your always home
B minorBm G+G
My restless heart. . . .
