Intro
G Em7 G
Golden, golden, golden river run
G Em7 G
To the East then drop beneath the sun
G Em7 G
And as the moon lies low and overhead
D Em7
We're lost
Em7 - D - G - D
Em7 - G - Em7...
Verse 1
Em7 G
Burn slow, burning up the back wall
Em7 G
Long roads, where the city meets the sky
Em7 G
Most days, most days stay the sole same
Em7 G
Please stay, for this fear it will not die
Chorus
C G
If I had a boat, I would sail to you
D Em
Hold you in my arms, ask you to be true
C G
Once I had a dream, it died long before
D Em Em
Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore
Verse 2
Em7 G
Down low, down amongst the thorn rows
Em7 G
Weeds grow, through the lilies and the vine
Em7 G
Birds play, try to find their own way
Em7 G
Soft clay, on your feet and under mine
Chorus
C G
If I had a boat, I would sail to you
D Em
Hold you in my arms, ask you to be true
C G
Once I had a dream, it died long before
D Em Em7
Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore
Bridge
C
Splitting at the seams
G
Heaving at the brace
D
Sheets all billowing
Em7
The breaking of the day
C
Sea is not my friend
G
And everyone conspires
D
Still I choose to swim
Em7
Slip beneath the tide
C
Once I had a dream
G
Once I had a hope
D
That was yesterday
Em7
Not so long ago
C
This is not the end
G
This is just the world
D
Such a foolish thing
Em7
Such an honest girl
Chorus
C G
If I had a boat, I would sail to you
D Em7
Hold you in my arms, ask you to be true
C G
Once I had a dream, it died long before
D Em7
Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore
