Stanza I
Dsus Em F* G
If life is a river and your heart is a boat
C Am Dm G
And just like a water baby, being born to float,
Dsus Em F G
And if life is a wild wind that blows way on high,
C Am Dm G
And your heart is Amelia dying to fly,
F G Bb A Dm G (Intro 2nd part)
Heaven knows no frontiers and I've seen heaven in your eyes
Stanza II
(Do Stanza I chord pattern except last line)
And if life is a bar room in which we must wait,
'round the man with his fingers on the ivory gates,
Where we sing until dawn of our fears and our fates,
And we stack all the dead men in self addressed crates,
C /F G
In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark,
G#dim Am
That somehow this black night,
Am/G F G C
Feels warmer for the spark, And warmer for the spark,
/D /E /F G G#dim Am
To hold us 'til the day, When fear will lose its grip,
Am/G F G Bb A
And heaven has its ways, Heaven knows no frontiers,
Dm G (Intro 2nd part)
And I've seen heaven in your eyes
Stanza III
(Do Stanza I chord pattern except last line)
If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails,
And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails,
Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right,
And your heart is a pure flame of man's constant night,
C /F G
In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark,
G#dim Am
That somehow this black night,
Am/G F G C
Feels warmer for the spark, And warmer for the spark,
/D /E /F G G#dim Am
To hold us 'til the day, When fear will lose its grip,
Am/G F G C
And heaven has its ways, And heaven has its ways,
/D /E /F G
When all will harmonize,
G#dim Am
And you know what's in our hearts,
Am/G
The dream will realize
F G Bb A
Heaven knows no frontiers,
Dm G F
And I've seen heaven in your eyes,
G Bb A Dm
Heaven knows no frontiers,
G (Outro)
And I've seen heaven in your eyes
