Chords with lyrics

Verse

C/Bb                  Am6Am6
A augmentedA stick, a stone, it's the end of the road
          Fm6/Ab
It's the rest of a stump, it's a little alone
C6/G       Gm7Gm7     C7C7      Am6/F#
It's a sliver of glass, it is life, it's the sun
              Fm7Fm7       C9/G
It is night, it is death, it's a trap, it's a gun
         C7/G         D7/F#D7/F#
The oak when it blooms, a fox in the brush
        Fm6Fm6          C9/G
The knot in the wood, the song of a thrush
         Gm7Gm7   C7C7    D7/F#D7/F#
The will of the wind, a cliff, a fall
       Fm7Fm7     Fm6Fm6    C9/G
A augmentedA scratch, a lump, it is nothing at all
            C7/G      C7C7     Am6/F#
It's the wind blowing free, it's the end of the slope
           Fm6Fm6            C9/G
It's a beam, it's a void, it's a hunch, it's a hope

C/GC/G         C7/G          Am6/F#
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
           Fm6Fm6            C9/G
It's the end of the strain, it's the joy in your heart

Verse

C/GC/G       C/Bb           Am6Am6
The foot, the ground, the flesh and the bone
        Fm6/Ab        C9/G
The beat of the road, a slingshot's stone
      C/Bb       D7/F#D7/F#
A augmentedA fish, a flash, a silvery glow
      Fm6Fm6        C9/G
A augmentedA fight, a bet, the range of a bow
         C/Bb        Am6Am6
The bed of the well, the end of the line
         Fm6/Ab           C9/G
The dismay in the face, it's a loss, it's a find
      C/Bb       Am6Am6
A augmentedA spear, a spike, a point, a nail
      Fm6/Ab        C/GC/G
A augmentedA drip, a drop, the end of the tale
         Gm9/C           D7/F#D7/F#
A augmentedA truckload of bricks in the soft morning light
        Bb7/F
The shot of a gun in the dead of the night
      C/Bb       Am6Am6
A augmentedA mile, a must, a thrust, a bump,
          Fm6/Ab            C9/G
It's a girl, it's a rhyme, it's a cold, it's the mumps
        Gm7Gm7     C9C9   D/C
The plan of the house, the body in bed
           Fm/C             C6/G
And the car that got stuck, it's the mud, it's the mud
       Gm/C    C7C7   D7/C
A augmentedA float, a drift, a flight, a wing
      Fm9/C         C majorC
A augmentedA hawk, a quail, the promise of spring

C majorC           C7/G         Am6/F#
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
          F minorFm      Fm6Fm6     C6C6
It's the promise of life, it's the joy in your heart

Verse

C/GC/G      C/Bb         Am6Am6
A augmentedA snake, a stick, it is John, it is Joe
           Fm6/Ab         C6/G
It's a thorn in your hand and a cut in your toe
      C/Bb      Am6Am6
A augmentedA point, a grain, a bee, a bite
      Fm6/Ab           C9/G
A augmentedA blink, a buzzard, a sudden stroke of night
C/GC/G       Cm7Cm7           D/C
A augmentedA pass in the mountains, a horse and a mule
           Fm6/C             C majorC
In the distance the shelves rode three shadows of blue

C majorC          Cm7Cm7          D/C
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
           Db/C             C/GC/G
It's the promise of life in your heart, in your heart

Verse

C majorC      C/Bb          Am6Am6
A augmentedA stick, a stone, the end of the load
       Fm6/Ab       C9/G
The rest of a stump, a lonesome road
       Gm7Gm7   C7C7    D/C
A augmentedA sliver of glass, a life, the sun
       Fm6Fm6    G#dim/C   C/GC/G
A augmentedA night, a death, the end of the run


C/GC/G         Gm7Gm7     C7C7    D/C
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
           Fm6Fm6            C9C9
It's the end of all strain, it's the joy in your heart
