C E Am Fm
You were waiting by the river Your coat was soaking wet
C E Am Fm
And as your arms began to shiver Your mind began to fret.
C E Am Fm
Closer came the winter that would take your breath away
C E Am Fm
Closer came the bitter cold that would keep your mind awake
( C E Am Fm ) (2x)
C E Am Fm
And as Time began to wander You stood there for a while
C E Am Fm
And as Your heart grew fonder He took away your smile
C E Am Fm
Kicking stones between your shoes You whistled not a note
C E Am Fm
Time spend disecting Every song he'd ever wrote
C E
And now your hair is saturated
Am Fm G
And your heart has been invaded
C E
And now you join the line
Am C G Fm
Of those who didn't make their move in time
( Am Fm C G )
Am Fm C G
Wont you come home and sleep Your mother's getting worried
Am Fm C G
and it's just a trip across the sea in a ship thats worthy of floating
Am Fm C G
You and me Back to where we can sleep.

C E Am
Your daddy was a sinner Because your mother she dreamt of
Fm
gold
C E Am Fm
But no one was a winner When it broke apart your home
C E Am
Your eyes they learnt to see things A child's mind should never
Fm
bear
C E Am Fm
But you couldn't stop listening To what you shouldn't hear.
Am Fm C G
Wont you come home and sleep Your mother's getting worried
Am Fm C G
and it's just a trip across the sea in a ship thats worthy of floating
Am Fm C G
You and me Back to where we can sleep.
( Am Fm C G ) (4x)
