Bea's Song (Priver Song Trilogy, Pt. 2) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
Speed [C]River at my feet
running low and flat
I'm [Am]sit ting here burning daylight,
Thinking about the past
And that [F]distance out there
Where the earth meets [C]the sky
[G]The slightest move and this river mud
Pulls [F]me further down
[G]John's at my side,
but [F]he's sitting on [C]firmer ground

[Verse 2]
[C]John says I look at the
moon and the stars
[Am]These days more often
than I look into his eyes
And I can[F]'t disagree
so I don't say [C]nothing
I [G]just stare on past his face at Venus [F]rising,
Like [G]a shining speck of [F]hope
hanging over the ho[C]rizon

[Verse 3]
With [C]each passing year that I sit here
That ho[Am]rizon seems to inch
just that much nearer
And [F]all that appears on it
seems as clear as [C]spit
But if there's [G]on thing in my life
That these years have [F]taught
It's that you can [G]always see it com[F]ing
But you can [C]never stop it

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am]
[F][C][G]
[F][G][F][C]

[Verse 4]
Speed [C]River at my feet
running low and flat
I'm [Am]sit ting here burning daylight,
Thinking about the past
And that [F]distance out there
Where the earth meets [C]the sky
[G]The slightest move and this river mud
Pulls [F]me further down
[G]John's at my side,
But he's not [F]noticing that I'm [C]drowning
[G]The slightest move and this river mud
Pulls me [F]further down
[G]John's at my side,
But he's not [F]noticing that I'm [C]drowning
