Verse

[C/Bb] [Am6]

A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road

[Fm6/Ab]

It's the rest of a stump, it's a little alone

[C6/G] [Gm7] [C7] [Am6/F#]

It's a sliver of glass, it is life, it's the sun

[Fm7] [C9/G]

It is night, it is death, it's a trap, it's a gun

[C7/G] [D7/F#]

The oak when it blooms, a fox in the brush

[Fm6] [C9/G]

The knot in the wood, the song of a thrush

[Gm7] [C7] [D7/F#]

The will of the wind, a cliff, a fall

[Fm7] [Fm6] [C9/G]

A scratch, a lump, it is nothing at all

[C7/G] [C7] [Am6/F#]

It's the wind blowing free, it's the end of the slope

[Fm6] [C9/G]

It's a beam, it's a void, it's a hunch, it's a hope

Chorus

[C/G] [C7/G] [Am6/F#]

And the river bank talks of the waters of March

[Fm6] [C9/G]

It's the end of the strain, it's the joy in your heart

Verse

[C/G] [C/Bb] [Am6]

The foot, the ground, the flesh and the bone

[Fm6/Ab] [C9/G]

The beat of the road, a slingshot's stone

[C/Bb] [D7/F#]

A fish, a flash, a silvery glow

[Fm6] [C9/G]

A fight, a bet, the range of a bow

[C/Bb] [Am6]

The bed of the well, the end of the line

[Fm6/Ab] [C9/G]

The dismay in the face, it's a loss, it's a find

[C/Bb] [Am6]

A spear, a spike, a point, a nail

[Fm6/Ab] [C/G]

A drip, a drop, the end of the tale

[Gm9/C] [D7/F#]

A truckload of bricks in the soft morning light

[Bb7/F]

The shot of a gun in the dead of the night

[C/Bb] [Am6]

A mile, a must, a thrust, a bump,

[Fm6/Ab] [C9/G]

It's a girl, it's a rhyme, it's a cold, it's the mumps

[Gm7] [C9] [D/C]

The plan of the house, the body in bed

[Fm/C] [C6/G]

And the car that got stuck, it's the mud, it's the mud

[Gm/C] [C7] [D7/C]

A float, a drift, a flight, a wing

[Fm9/C] [C]

A hawk, a quail, the promise of spring

Chorus

[C] [C7/G] [Am6/F#]

And the river bank talks of the waters of March

[Fm] [Fm6] [C6]

It's the promise of life, it's the joy in your heart

Instrumental

[F#/E] [Eb/Db] [C/Bb] [Am6] [Fm6/Ab] [C/G] [Gb7b5] [F] [Fm6] [C6] [C/Bb] [Am6] [Fm6/Ab]

Verse

[C/G] [C/Bb] [Am6]

A snake, a stick, it is John, it is Joe

[Fm6/Ab] [C6/G]

It's a thorn in your hand and a cut in your toe

[C/Bb] [Am6]

A point, a grain, a bee, a bite

[Fm6/Ab] [C9/G]

A blink, a buzzard, a sudden stroke of night

[C/Bb] [Am6]

A pin, a needle, a sting, a pain

[Fm6/Ab] [C/G]

A snail, a riddle, a wasp or a stain

[C/G] [Cm7] [D/C]

A pass in the mountains, a horse and a mule

[Fm6/C] [C]

In the distance the shelves rode three shadows of blue

Chorus

[C] [Cm7] [D/C]

And the river bank talks of the waters of March

[Db/C] [C/G]

It's the promise of life in your heart, in your heart

Verse

[C] [C/Bb] [Am6]

A stick, a stone, the end of the load

[Fm6/Ab] [C9/G]

The rest of a stump, a lonesome road

[Gm7] [C7] [D/C]

A sliver of glass, a life, the sun

[Fm6] [G#dim/C] [C/G]

A night, a death, the end of the run

Chorus

[C/G] [Gm7] [C7] [D/C]

And the river bank talks of the waters of March

[Fm6] [C9]

It's the end of all strain, it's the joy in your heart
