River Lea chords by Adele

I play this without capo

Submitted by: Dara

G
Everybody tells me it's about time that I moved on
D
And I need to learn to lighten up and how to be young!
Em
But my heart is a valley...
C
It's so shallow and man made
G
I'm scared to death if I let you in that

you'll see I'm just a fade
D

Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch
Em                              C
But I know that's just me cause nothing ever is enough

G
When I was a child I grew up by the River Lea
D
There was something in the water, now that something's in me
Em
Ohhhhh I can't go back, but the reeves

are growing out of my fingertips
C
I can't go back to the river

G
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins
D
It's in my blood
Em
And I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain
C
It's in my roots
G
It's in my veins
D                            Em
It's in my blood and I stain every heart that
C
I use to heal the pain

G
So I blame it on the River Lea
D
The River Lea, the River Lea
Em
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
C
The River Lea, the River Lea
G
So I blame it on the River Lea
D
The River Lea, the River Lea
Em
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
C
The River Lea, the River Lea

G
I should probably tell you now before it's way too late
D
That I never meant to hurt you or lie straight to your face
Em
Consider this my apology
C
I know it's years in advance
G
But I'd rather say it now in case I never get the chance
D
No I can't go back, but the reeves
Em
are growing out of my fingertips
C
I can't go back to the river!

G
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins
D
It's in my blood and I stain every

heart that I use to heal the pain
Em
It's in my roots, it's in my veins
C
It's in my blood and I stain every

heart that I use to heal the pain

G
So I blame it on the River Lea
D
The River Lea, the River Lea
Em
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
C
