Ribbon chords by Billie Marten

Chords with lyrics

Intro:

DbDb BB

 F# minorF#m             BB
Ribbon of the river by my side

               F#F#    B minorBm  BB
I walk the shore and watch it unwind

   F#F#                       BB
The railway tracks still leave a glimpse of the light

                   F# minorF#m     B minorBm
From the train, trailing sparks of gold behind

  F# minorF#m          DbmDbm        BB
And as soon as you've seen it, it's gone

  D MajorD         DbmDbm      F# minorF#m   A augmentedA   BB
And as soon as you've seen it it's gone


 D MajorD         F# minorF#m
Secrets of the city

 D MajorD          A augmentedA
Make an aching in my heart

 D MajorD          F# minorF#m
And the mysteries that tease me so

  D MajorD           DbmDbm     A augmentedA     BB
I long to belong but I always have to go


 F# minorF#m                 BB
People stare and wonder why I stray

                 F# minorF#m     BB
They don't understand that wandering's my way

   F#F#                    BB
I'll never stop, though time's slipping away

                  F# minorF#m   BB
The elusive light, shining strange on my face

 D MajorD           DbmDbm        BB
And as soon as you've seen it, it's gone

 D MajorD           DbmDbm        BB
And as soon as you've seen it, it's gone


 D MajorD          F# minorF#m
Secrets of the city

 D MajorD            A augmentedA
Make an aching in my heart

 D MajorD             F# minorF#m
And the mysteries that tease me so

          A augmentedA        E MajorE    BB
I long to belong, but I always have to go


   D MajorD         E MajorE    B minorBm
Hope ties me up with discontent

   D MajorD      DbmDbm     B minorBm
Since the day I first went

 F# minorF#m        DbmDbm     B minorBm
Yearning to be back again

 D MajorD      E MajorE      B minorBm
How will I return, and when?


 D MajorD         F# minorF#m
Secrets of the city

 D MajorD          A augmentedA
Make an aching in heart

 D MajorD            F# minorF#m
And the mysteries that tease me so

       D MajorD       DbmDbm     E MajorE    BB
I long to belong but I always have to go
