Intro: D G Bm D G (2x)
G A D
Well, there s a river that runs through Glasgow
Bm D
And it makes up and it breaks up
G D G
And it takes her in two parts
G A Bm D
And the current just like my blood flows
D G
Down from the hills
G A D
Round aching bones to my restless heart
D G
G D A G
And I would swim but the river is so wide
G D A G
I'm Scared I won t make it to the other side n'
G D
God knows that I've failed,
A D D
But he knows that I've tried
G D A G
I long for something that s safe and warm
G D A G
But all I have is all that is gone
G D
And I'm as helpless and as hopeless
A D
As a feather on the Clyde
G A D G G Bm G D G
G A D
But on one side all the lights glow
Bm
and the folks know where the kids go
G D G
when the music and the drinking starts
G A Bm D
On the other side where no cars go
D G A
Up to the hills that stand alone
D
Like my restless heart
G D A G D A G
And I would swim but the river is so wide
G D A G
I'm Scared I won t make it to the other side n'
G D
God knows that I've failed,
A D D
But he knows that I've tried
G D A G
I long for something that s safe and warm
G D A G
But all I have is all that is gone
G D
And I'm as helpless and as hopeless
A D
As a feather on the Clyde

D G
The sun sets late in Glasgow
Bm G
The daylight and the city part
Bm
And I think of you in Glasgow
G Bm G
Your always safe, your always home
Bm G
My restless heart. . . .,,,,,,,,,,,,
