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

Capo I *

D G Bm D G  2x 

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

D G

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

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

G A D G  G Bm G  D

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

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

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

G A D G  G Bm G  D       2x

    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. . . .
