A House By The River

Am    G    Am    G

[Verse]
    Am              C            F            G
You traded all your lovers for a house by the river
    Am                C            F               G
And all those sweet deceptions and one more broken vow
        Am          C       F               G             C
And the dark-eyed poets who promised you forever, tell me
      F        G      Am
Where are they now
      F        G
Where are they now

[Verse]
Am              C             F              G
You were always running, just one more step ahead
    Am                C             F             G
And just like all the others, I was following somehow
       Am                 C       F                       G             C
Was it something I wasn't saying, something I should have said, tell me
      F    G      Am
Where am I now
      F    G
Where am I now

[Instrumental]
Am   C   F   G
Am   C   F   G
Am   C   F   G   C
F   G      Am   F   G

[Verse]
          Am          C                 F               G
Now sweet solitude surrounds you like a blanket of wild heather
        Am           C            F       G
You are one with the land and the sky somehow
        Am              C               F               G               C
And the seasons sway in sympathy as you dance in time together, tell me
      F       G       Am
Where are you now
      F       G
Where are you now

[Verse]
    Am             C                F                G
And I will write a song for you and try to fill this space
         Am               C          F            G
And I'll take the time in passing to wonder from afar
Am                C                    F            G
Maybe I'll try to find you, though you never left a trace
          C           F            G
And maybe then I will know who you are
      Am          F            G
Maybe then I will know who you are
