Introduction:
E7 A Am7 Em6 A7
A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road
A7/6 D9 Bbm7 A
It's feeling alone, it's the weight of your load
A(#5) A7/6 D9
It's a sliver of glass, it's life, it's the sun
D6 Dm6 Bm7(b5) A
It's night, it's death, it's a knife, it's a gun
Am7 Em6 A7 D6
A flower that blooms, a fox in the brush
Bbm7 Fº Bm7(b5) A
A knot in the wood, the song of a thrush
Am7 Em6 A7 D6
A myst'ry of life, the steps in the hall
Bbm7 Fº Bm7(b5) A
The sound of the wind, and the waterfall.
E7/6 A Am7 Em6 A7
It's the moon floating free, it's the curve of the slope
A7/6 D9 Bbm7 A
It's an end, it's a bee, it's a reason for hope
A(#5) A7/6 A7(9) D9
And the river bank sings of the waters of March
Bbm7 Fº Bm7(b5) A
It's the promise of spring, the joy in your heart.
A Am7 Em6 A7
A spear, a spike, a stake, a nail
A7/6 D9 Bbm7 A
It's a drip, it's a drop, it's the end of the tale
A(#5) A7/6 D9
The dew on the leaf in the morning light,
D6 Dm6 Bm7(b5) A
The shot of a gun in the dead of the night
Am7 Em6 A7 D6
A mile, a must, a thrust, a bump,
Bbm7 Fº Bm7(b5) A
It's the will to survive, it's a jolt, it's a jump
A Am7 Em6 D6
Blue print of a house, a body in bed
Bbm7 Dm6 Bm7(b5) A
Car stuck in the mud, it's the mud, it's the mud
Am7 Em6 A7
A fish, a flash, a wish, a wing
A7/6 D9 Bbm7 A
It's a hawk, it's a dove, it's the promise of spring
A(#5) A7/6 A7(9) D
And the river bank sings of the waters of March
Bbm7 Fº Bm7(b5) A
It's the end of dispair, the joy in your heart.
E7 A Am7 Em6 A7
A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road
A7/6 D9 Bbm7 A
The stump of a tree, it's a frog, it's a toad
Am7 Em6 A7 D6
A sigh, a breath, a walk, a run
Bbm7 Fº Bm7(b5) A
A life, a death, a rain, a sun
A(#5) A7/6 A7(9) D
And the river bank sings of the waters of March
Dm6 Bbm7 Fº A
It's the promise of life, it's the joy in your heart.
