[Verse 1]
Em D G C
How many times have I had this dream
Em D G C
That wakes me from my slumber?
Em D G C
How will I ever get to sleep again
Em D G C
Counting sheep in a Book of Numbers?
Em D G C
How many times have I had this dream
Em D G C
With you walking towards me from the river?
Em D G C
And when will I ever get to rest again
Em D G C
Wondering if I can deliver?
[Chorus]
Am D
This is the sound of rushing water
Am D
Flooding through my brain
Am D
This is the sound of God's own daughter
Am D
Calling out your name
[Verse 2]
Em D G C
This is the sound of atmospheres
Em D G C
Three metric tonnes of pressure
Em D G C
This is the sum of all my fears
Em D G C
Something I just can't measure
Em D G C
I remеmber the story of Jonah
Em D G C
He was trappеd in the belly of a whale
Em D G C
How many times must he succeed?
Em D G C
How many times must he fail?
[Chorus]

This is the sound of rushing water

Flooding through my brain

This is the sound of God's own daughter

Calling out your name
[Verse 3]

I'll see my shrink on an analyst's couch
G C D Em
Hit me with a hammer and I'll say, "Ouch"
G C D Em
What we have here is so easy to solve
G C D Em
Just takes a firm purpose and some resolve
[Chorus]

This is the sound of rushing water (Rushing water)

Flooding through my brain (Flooding through my brain)

[Verse 1]
G D C D
Jumped out of bed this morning
G D C
With a smile upon my face
G D C D
It's still there while I shave my chin
G D C
But the reasons hard for me to trace
G D C D
I cook myself some breakfast
G D C
Have some coffee while I muse
G D C D
Where could this smile have come from?
G D C
It's a muscle that I rarely use
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G C G
Call the doctor with my symptoms
Em G C
Should I spend all day in bed?
Em G C G
Can you explain what's ailing me?
Am D
And this is what my doctor said
[Chorus]
G
If it's love, it has no season
Em
If it's love, there is no cure
Am
If it's love, it won't see reason
D
And of this you can be sure
G
If it's love, you must surrender (You must surrender)
Em
If it's love that's turned you 'round (That's turned you 'round)
Am
If it's love, the odds are slender (The odds are)
D
If it's love, you're sunk without a trace
D
One case can bring you down
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G D G D
You smile and your heart skips a beat
G D C
You hear a church bell chiming
G D G D
A sound that's ringing in your ears
G D C
Will set your heartbeat climbing
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G C G
And my doctor's diagnosis?
Em G C Em G C G
His opinion and a quote, "I'll write you a prescription"
Am D
And this is what my doctor wrote
[Chorus]
G
If it's love, it has no season
Em
If it's love, there is no cure
Am
If it's love, it won't see reason
D
And of this you can be sure
G
If it's love, you must surrender (You must surrender)
Em
If it's love, then you must yield (Then you must yield)
Am
If it's love, the odds are slender (The odds are)
D
If it's love, the trap's already laid
D
And I'm afraid your fate is all but sealed

Am G C
[Verse 1]
Am G C
Bring me a glass of water
Am G C
To wash the dirt from my throat
Am G C
I've been wandering my whole life out there
Am G C
Help me out of my coat
Am G C
This water's as clear as crystal
Am G C
We should thank the Lord for that
Am G C
Sit you down and hear my story
Am G F
Find somewhere for my hat
Am G C
A barkeep takes a stranger's hat
Am G C
And finds a vacant hook
Am G C
Turns back towards the traveller
F
His right hand on an old black book
[Chorus]
Am G Dm
The holy Book of Numbers
Dm G Am
I take it's something that you've read?
Am G Dm
The long search in the wilderness
Dm G F
For a place to lay my head
[Verse 2]
Am G C
So many parables in the scriptures
Am G C
But this one I'm doomed to tell
Am G C
For I stormed the gates of Heaven
Am G C
To find myself in Hell
Am G C
This is my lonely mission
Am G C
To wake the world up to its fate
Am G C
To dismantle my own invention
Am G F Dm
For the hour is getting late
[Chorus]
Am G Dm
This holy Book of Numbers
Dm G Am
As we walk through the shadow of death
Am G Dm
Tell me, are you listening, boy
Dm G Am
Or am I just wasting my breath?
Am G C
There are fools in the courts of power
Dm G Am
While I've walked through this vale of bitter tears
Am G C
At the mercy of recording angels
Dm G F
For three score and twenty-five years
[Outro]
Am G C
The barkeep gets up from the table
Am G C
To fill up another glass
Am G C
He turns around to find an empty chair
Am G C
All that's left is the name in his hat

[Intro]
| Am | G Am | 4x
[Verse 1]
Am G
You say that I don't listen
Am G
That I don't give you no respect
Am G
You took your love to some other place
Am G
Now, what did you expect?
Am G
We made vows inside the church
Am G
To forgive each other's sins
Am G
But there are things I have to endure
Am G
Like the smell of another man's skin
[Chorus]
Am G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
[Verse 2]
Am G
You say you wanted children
Am G
And you would grow into a mother
Am G
But in my mind's eye, I would see you
Am G
In the arms of another
Am G
I am given to jealousy
Am G
I've been given to violence
Am G
But I could never raise a hand in my defence
Am G
So I suffer here in silence
[Chorus]
Am G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
[Instrumental]
| Am | G Am | 2x
[Verse 3]
Am G Am
I pray the waters of forgiveness
G Am
Will rain down on you and me
G Am
Just like newborn babies
G Am G
In the cradle of a tree
Am G
And we will walk in righteousness
Am G
We will walk in rain and thunder
Am G
And what God has joined together here
Am G
Let no man put asunder
[Chorus]
Am G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)
G Am
If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is
G Am
If that's not loving you, I don't know what is (I don't know what)

If that's not loving you, then tell me what it is

[Verse 1]
g Em
The street where we live
Bm F#m
Is commonly known as being the wrong side of town
G Em
They look down their noses at you
Bm A
Like they're entitled to keep you down
G Em
Our street has its social issues
Bm F#m
And violent crime by the bucket load

They laughed when they named it Harmony Road
[Verse 2]

They say where you're born

Will have an effect on how you turn out in life
G Em
So how can you make a living
Bm A
When all you have is a pocket knife?
G Em
You don't have the choice to run
Bm F#m
From anothеr violent episode
G A G
Wеlcome to life here on Harmony Road
[Chorus]
G Em Bm F#m
One day, we'll make a break
G Em Bm A
Get out of here, make no mistake
G Em
We'll steal a car
Bm F#m
Find a happy song on the radio
G A G
And never come back to Harmony Road
[Verse 3]
G Em
You walk down the hill
Bm F#m
And past the old factory shuttered for twenty years
G Em
There used to be work
Bm A
But you wonder how you'll ever get out of here
G Em
If I had a song in me
Bm F#m
I would pay off all of the debts I owed
G A G
I'm all out of tune on Harmony Road
[Verse 4]
G Em
I'll find us some money
Bm F#m
And I will take you with me, I promise you
G Em
I'll buy you some fancy clothes
Bm A
And we'll do all the things we wanted to

And no one will know

The king and the queen of Harmony Road

One day, we'll make a break from here
G# Fm Cm Bb
We'll make it big and have no fear
G# Fm
Won't carry the social stigma
Cm Gm
Of being judged by our postal code
G# Bb G#
And we will be done with Harmony Road
[Outro]
G# Fm
But then in our dreams
Cm Gm
Are we to be haunted by what we left behind?
G# Fm
That road has a way of
Cm Bb
Pulling you back if ever you give it mind
G# Fm
No matter the riches
Cm Gm
And all the palaces where we may have strode
G# Bb G#
We'll always belong to Harmony Road
G# Bb G#
We'll always belong to Harmony Road

C Em
Oh, the hills on the border
C D
'Bout this time of the year
C D Em
When the mists seem to gather
C Bm Em
In the valley of your fears
C Em
And you walk through that valley
C D
As day turns to night
C D Em
Is there something in the shadows
C Bm Em
Or the failing of the light?
[Verse 2]
C Em
I was walking home last evening
C D
When perhaps I should have ran
C D Em
From a darkening of shadows
C Bm Em
In the shape of a man
C Em
It said, "Talk to me, stranger
C D
Or may I call you brother?
C D Em
Let us make our way together
C Bm Em
From this place to another
[Chorus]
G D
I don't carry any weapon
G D
I don't carry any staff
C D Em
But I'll carry half your burden
C Bm Em
Till your journey's cut in half
G D
Let me sharе of your burden

The lifetimе you will carve
C D Em
And the gravestone that you carry
C Bm Am Bm C D Em D G
Will be a burden halved"

C Em
He sat down by the roadside
C D
As the mists they gathered 'round
C D Em
Takes some cards from his pocket
C Bm Em
That he spreads upon the ground
C Em
He said, "This card is a woman
C D
You will love but not possess
C D Em
And this card's a man you'll murder
C Bm Em
But you'll never confess
[Chorus]

I don't carry any weapon

He said, "I have the gift of secrets

From our Father, little brother

Your coat around your ears

KEY: D
[Intro]
| Eadd9 | Eadd9 |
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Lord Bateman was a noble lord
A
A noble lord of high degree
G A Eadd9
Imprisoned in some foreign country
G D/F# E
To spend his life in captivity
[Verse 2]
G A Eadd9
He is a captain in the King's own Navy
G Aadd9
He'd spent his life upon the cold grey sea
G A Eadd9
What would he give now for a plate of meat and gravy
G D/F# E
Or for an angel to appear and set him free
[Verse 3]
G A Eadd9
For seven years he lives on bread and dirty water
G Aadd9
A single candle in his prison room for light
G A Eadd9
Into the cell will walk the pretty jailer's daughter
G D/F# E
The cloak she's wearing is as black as any night
[Chorus]
D G A
She is a creature of captivating beauty
D G A
As this bold captain's hungry eyes would ever see
G A Eadd9
She looks upon him with the eye of love's desire
G D/F# E
And so he begs her, "Lady, will ye set me free?"
[Verse 5]
G A Eadd9
"What can you offer if you gain your freedom?
G Aadd9
I'll lose my heart if I should ever set you free
G A Eadd9
I have the keys if you'll deliver me a promise
G D/F# E
Should I release you, then you'll vow to marry me"
[Chorus]
D G A
"You are a creature of captivating beauty
D G A
We could run and make a life beyond the sea"
G A Eadd9
He takes her hand in his and makes a solemn promise
G D/F# E
"Unchain me now and I will vow to marry thee"
[Verse 6]
G A Eadd9
Beneath the city walls and down into the harbour
G Aadd9
She'll throw his chains into the wine-dark sea
G A Eadd9
They'll find a ship, but now his hand is forced to stay her
G D/F# E
"In truth, I never could have married thee"
[Chorus]
D G A
She was a creature of captivating beauty
D G A
He still has many miles of ocean to traverse
G A Eadd9
His broken promises will move the gods to anger
G D/F# E
All broken promises will render matters worse
G A Eadd9
She sees the black storm clouds on the horizon
G D/F# E D
His solemn promises lie broken
A/C# A G D/F# E
And whispered on the wind, as if it's spoken
Eadd9
He'll hear a maiden's curse
[Ending]

[Intro]
G Em G Em
G Em G Em
[Verse 1]
G
I wake up in Antwerp
Em
In some rich woman's bed
G
There's a man with a hammer
Em
Inside of my head
G
She says, "I couldn't wake you
Em
I thought you were dead
G
But you talked in your sleep
Em
I don't know what you said"
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
I look in the mirror
Em
My eyes bleeding red
Cmaj7
There's a taste in my mouth
En
Of stale brandy and lead
Cmaj7
Don't know how I got here
Gmaj7
Or if I was led
B
But I know it's a Sunday
G#m
For the bells in my head
[Chorus 1]
E
As they call to the faithful
C#m
The quick and the dead
G#m F#
The last days of judgement upon us
E C#m
And the bells on the roof of St. Thomas
G#m
Are calling
[Verse 3]
G
Shе says, "Are you hungry?
Em
You look underfed"
G
"No, I'd bеtter be going
F#m
I'll have coffee instead"
G
"Let me give you some money"
Em
I say, "There's no need
G
You don't owe me nothing
Em
It's what we agreed"
[Verse 4]
Cmaj7
But the room's like a palace
Em
In a book I once read
Cmaj7
And the words that I'm thinking
Em
Would be better unsaid
Cmaj7
I search for my clothes
G
Then she asks if I'll stay
B
"There's a room for you here
G#m
My husband's away"
[Chorus 2]
E
The bells of St. Thomas
C#m
Are aching with doubt
G#m
They're cracked and they're broken
F#
Like the earth in a drought
E
I've searched for their meaning
C#m
I just never found out
G#m F#
Whatever they're expecting from us
E C#m
Or why the bells on the roof of St. Thomas
G#m
Are crying
[Verse 5]
A F#m
I walk to the church, though it's empty by now
A F#m
The roof like an overturned ship, and a prow
A F#m
For a pulpit, and there it is upon the wall
A F#m
St. Thomas inspecting the wounds for us all
[Verse 6]
Dmaj7
It's a painting by Rubens
F#m
Painted from life
Dmaj7
And it's flanked by a rich man
F#m
And his elegant wife
Dmaj7
The wounds we all share
A
And yet still need the proof
Fm
You can feign your indifference
Bbm
Pretend you're aloof
[Chorus 3]
F# D#m
But the wounds we're denying are there all the same
Bbm G#
And the bells of St. Thomas start ringing again
F#
The saint I was named for
D#m
The sceptical brother
Bbm
The rich man's wife
G#
In the arms of another
F#
And the exit wounds
D#m
Of a love that's gone wrong
Bbm
She said she was leaving
G#
But she'd already gone
F#m D
And the last days of judgement are finally upon on us
A D
And the bells on the roof of St. Thomas
A
Are calling

Up there in the mist

Some will deny it's there

It's not made of iron or steel nor stone

We are but bags of blood and bone

If we carry the weight of our sons and our daughters

And now that feels are rather drowned

And we climb up to the ridge

Some will seek the higher ground

Some of us the bridge

If all is bеhind us now

Beneath us swollen rivеr

The bridge we will find somehow

Only then we would be delivered
[Verse 4]
F C G Am
Though some will claim to be inclined
Dm C G
It's a figment or a ghost
F G Am
But the bridge is deep inside the mind
Dm C G
Invisible to most
[Chorus]
F C G Am
And now the city's all but drowned
Dm C G
And here upon the ridge
F G Am
Some will seek the higher ground
Dm G C
Some of us the bridge
[Outro]
F G Am
We'll open the gates that we may follow
Dm C G
Open the bridge to all of us
F G Am
Open the floodgate to the river
Dm C G C
Open the bridge that we may cross

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C Am
I cannot get to my love if I would die;
Dm C F
The water of Tyne runs between her and me
Am Dm F
And here I must stand with a tear in my 'ee
C F C
Both sighing and sickly, my true love to see
[Verse 2]
C Am Dm
Oh, where is the boatman, oh, my bonny hinny?
Dm C F
Oh, where is the boatman? bring him to me
Am Dm F
To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey

And I will remember the boatman and thee
[Bridge]
F C
It's starting to rain and I'm froze to the marrow
F F
I see her as plainly as she can see me
F C
It's less than a mile between North Shields and Jarrow
F C
And the ship of my heart's carriеd out to the sea
[Outro]
C Am
Oh, bring me a boatman, I'll give any money
Dm G F
And you for your troubles rewarded shall be
Am Dm F
To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey
C F C
Or scull her across the rough river to me

NO CAPO
KEY:
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G B7
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
C A
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
G B7
Watchin' the ships roll in
C A
Then I watch 'em roll away again
[Chorus]
G E
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Watchin' the tide roll away
G A
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Wastin' time
[Verse 2]
G B7
I left my home in Georgia
C A
And headed for the 'Frisco Bay
G B7
'Cause I got nothin' to live for
C A
Looks like nothin's gonna come my way
[Chorus]
G E
Just sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Watchin' the tide roll away
G A
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Wastin' time
[Bridge]
G D C
Looks like nothin's gonna change
G D C
Everything seems to stay the same
G D C
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
F D
So I guess I'll remain the same
[Verse 3]
G B7
Sittin' here restin' my bones
C A
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
G B7
Two thousand miles I roamed
C A
Just to make this dock my home
[Chorus]
G E
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Watchin' the tide roll away
G A
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
G E
Wastin' time
[Outro]
