feather on the clyde chords
passenger ( from the album all the little lights )

capo i *

D G Bm D G 2x

D G
well , there s a river that runs through glasgow
Bm D
and it makes up and it breaks up
G D
and it takes her in two parts
G D Bm
and the current just like my blood flows
G
down from the hills
Bm G D
round aching bones to my restless heart

D G

G D A
well , i would swim but the river is so wide
G D A
scared i won t make it to the other side
G D
god knows that i ve failed ,
Bm G
but he knows that i ve tried

G D A
i long for something that s safe and warm
G D A
but all i have is so often is gone
G D
and it s helpless and it s hopeless
A D
as a feather on the clyde

G A D G G Bm G D

G D
but on one side all the lights glow
Bm D
and the folks know when the kids go
G D
and the music and the drinking starts
G D
on the other side where no cars go
G Bm
up to the hills that stand alone
G D
like my restless heart

G D A
but , i would swim but the river is so wide
G D A
scared i won t make it to the other side
G D
god knows that i ve failed ,
Bm G
but he knows that i ve tried

G D A
i long for something that s safe and warm
G D A
but all i have is so often is gone
G D
and it s helpless and it s hopeless
A D
as a feather on the clyde

G A D G G Bm G D 2

x D G
the sun sets late in glasgow
Bm G
the daylight and the city part
Bm
and i think of you in glasgow
G Bm G
your always safe , your always home

Bm G
my restless heart . . . .
