C                       G
It's a long, dark river my boat sails on
Am            Em
Down to the murky sea
        F                        C
Where a beam of goodness in your heart
F                 G
Serves to comfort me

     C                    G
It's a distant, magical land I seek
Am            Em
A desperate refugee
   F                      C
A rebel who has lost his way
    F              G
But found the buried key

[Chorus]
 F           D
So it's alright
Em                  Am
Love won't let you down
F               D
Safe on a good night
G                    C
Stranger comes to town

[Verse]
        C                    G
If you find him wearing his old tin hat
Am                  Em
Beware the common saint
            F                        C
Who could lead you down a reckless path
F                       G
To where the good guys ain't

           C                   G
We could hold each other in common prayer
Am                    Em
Our babies close at hand
      F                    C
We could live like drifters Rolling on
F                         G
 Towards the promised land

[Chorus]
   F          D
So it's alright
Em                       Am
If love don't let you down
F                  D
Safe on a good night
G                    C
Stranger comes to town

[Bridge]
C                  G
       Sir, don't let me down
Am                  Em
       Please let me breathe
F                    D
      God won't let me down
G                     C
He knows I wanna please

[Chorus]
    F          D
So it's alright
Em                      Am
If love don't let you down
F               D
Safe on a good night
G                    C
Stranger comes to town

[Bridge]
C                 G
        Sir, don't let me down
Am                 Em
       Please let me breathe
F                   D
        God won't let me down
G                     C
He knows I wanna please

[Verse]
         C                            G
I could close my compass and sail on free
Am                    Em
And find the missing men
F                                    C
Oh, I could lose my bearings like before
      F            G
And lose myself again

           C                           G
When you find yourself in a crowded wood
     Am                    Em
With no way through the trees
F                                          C
And that old, sweet promise of something good
F                   G
Pulls you to your knees

[Outro]
F                D
Well it's alright
Em                      Am
If love don't let you down
F                  D
Safe on a good night
G                   C
Stranger comes to town
