Feather On The Clyde chords
Passenger (from the album All The Little Lights)

Capo 3

C F Am C F  2x 

                C                       F 
Well, there s a river that runs through Glasgow
       Am              C
And it makes up and it breaks up 
       F                C
And it takes her in two parts
        F                    C           Am
And the current just like my blood flows
              F
Down from the hills
Am           F                    C        
Round aching bones to my restless heart

C F

      F                    C           G    
Well, I would swim but the river is so wide
F              C              G
Scared I won t make it to the other side
F                   C
God knows that I ve failed,
       Am              F
But he knows that I ve tried

  F                         C        G
I long for something that s safe and warm
    F                C        G
But all I have is so often is gone
         F                 C
And it s helpless and it s hopeless 
     G              C
As a feather on the Clyde

F G C F  F Am F  C

       F                C
But on one side all the lights glow
        Am                  C
and the folks know when the kids go 
        F                      C
And the music and the drinking starts
       F                        C
On the other side where no cars go
          F                 Am
Up to the hills that stand alone
        F        C
Like my restless heart

     F                    C           G    
But, I would swim but the river is so wide
F              C              G
Scared I won t make it to the other side
F                   C
God knows that I ve failed,
       Am              F
But he knows that I ve tried

  F                         C        G
I long for something that s safe and warm
    F                C        G
But all I have is so often is gone
         F                 C
And it s helpless and it s hopeless 
     G              C
As a feather on the Clyde

F G C F  F Am F  C       2x

    C                F
The sun sets late in Glasgow
                          Am   F
The daylight and the city part
                      Am
And I think of you in Glasgow
            F     Am          F
Your always safe, your always home

Am          F
My restless heart. . . .
