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
                      Em7  
We're lost
Em7-  D-  G-  D  
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
                             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  
Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore
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
                             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  
Now I'm pointed north, hoping for the shore
                                             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
                             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
