Intro: Am  Dm  F  Am

Am
Oh the river  oh the river  it's running free

And oh the joy  oh the joy it brings to me
        Dm               F              G
But I know it'll have to drown me
Am
Before it can breathe easy
    Am
And I've seen it in the flights of birds  I've seen it in you

The eintrails of the animals the blood running through
      Dm                   F
But in order to get to the heart
            G         Am
I think sometimes you have to cut trough

But you can't

Dm   F  Am
Keep it up
    Dm  F   Am
I know you can...

         F
Just keep following
    C                 G
The heartlines on your hand
          F
Just keep following
     C                 G
The heartlines on your hand
     F  C

          F
Just keep following
    C                  G
The heartlines on your hand
        Am
Cause I am...

(Am  C)

Am
On the sea  on the sea and land over land

Creeping and crawling like the sea over sand
 Dm            F           G      Am
Still I follow heartlines on your hand

And this fantasy  this fallacy  this tumbling stone

Echoes of a city that's long overgrown
     Dm                   F      G       Am
your heart is the only place that I call home

How can I be returned?

Am
You can...

Keep it up..

I know you can...

         F
Just keep following
    C                 G
The heartlines on your hand
          F
Just keep following
     C                 G
The heartlines on your hand
     F  C

            G
In know you can
          F
Just keep following
    C                  G
The heartlines on your hand


F C                 G
   What a thing to do

Oooh...
F C                  G
   What a thing to choose
       F           C  G
But know  in some way  I'm there with you
F                C        G                F C G
 Up against the wall on a Wednesday afternoon

          F
Just keep following
    C                  G
The heartlines on your hand
        F C
Keep it up
           G
I know you can
          F
Just keep following
    C                  G
The heartlines on your hand
                 Am

Cause I am...
