F                       C
So there's longing in the shoulders now
                 Dm           Bb
There was a wildness in that time
             C
Can't we now say
                  F          Bb       C 
Oh sweet were the hours, but hours to find

               F            C
There was no way to live in simple dreams
                Dm               Bb
There was no straightness to our line
          C
Gravel in hand
               F          Bb       C 
Darling, we're moving the mountains around


[Chorus]
            Bb              C
This is the fire of leaving pains
         F                    Dm
when the love is gone but the need remains
         Bb         C
into the shiver and cold of day
         F                            Dm
when the house is gone but the street remains
             C
I guess it's true
Bb                           F
I guess these rivers never knew


[Verse 2]
         F         C
And so finally the night time comes
             Dm           Bb
There is no lot to cast a blame
           C
No need to hide
                F            Bb      C
No fear who I'd meet in some grocery lane


[Chorus]
   Bb              C
This is the fire of leaving pains
         F                    Dm
when the love is gone but the need remains
         Bb         C
into the shiver and cold of day
         F                            Dm
when the house is gone but the street remains
             C
I guess it's true
Bb                           F
I guess these rivers never knew


[Instrumental]
Bb F C Dm 


[Verse 3]
                 F                C
And I'll sing of seasons 'til you turn me off
          Dm             Bb
I see the way of letting go
               C
They'll be the same
             F             Bb        C
And whatever changes these changes I know


[Chorus]
 Bb              C
This is the fire of leaving pains
            F                       Dm
When we're not that strong but the need remains
         Bb         C
into the shiver and lights of day
         F                            Dm
when the house is gone but the fields remain
             C
I guess it's true
Bb                           F
I guess these rivers never knew
