 Well, there s a river that runs through Glasgow
        Am              C        
 And it makes up and it breaks up
        F                C    
 And it takes her in two parts
         F                    C          Am 
 And the current just like my blood flows
               F    
 Down from the hills
 Am           F                    C    
 Round aching bones to my restless heart
 
 C F 
   
       F                    C           G   
 Well, I would swim but the river is so wide
 F              C              G         
 Scared I won t make it to the other side
 F                   C      
 God knows that I ve failed,
        Am              F    
 But he knows that I ve tried
 
   F                         C        G   
 I long for something that s safe and warm
     F                C        G   
 But all I have is so often is gone
          F                 C       
 And it s helpless and it s hopeless
      G              C    
 As a feather on the Clyde
 
 F G C F F Am F C 
         
        F                C          
 But on one side all the lights glow
         Am                  C      
 and the folks know when the kids go
         F                      C     
 And the music and the drinking starts
        F                        C 
 On the other side where no cars go
           F                 Am  
 Up to the hills that stand alone
         F        C    
 Like my restless heart
 
      F                    C           G   
 But, I would swim but the river is so wide
 F              C              G         
 Scared I won t make it to the other side
 F                   C      
 God knows that I ve failed,
        Am              F    
 But he knows that I ve tried
 
   F                         C        G   
 I long for something that s safe and warm
     F                C        G   
 But all I have is so often is gone
          F                 C       
 And it s helpless and it s hopeless
      G              C    
 As a feather on the Clyde

 The sun sets late in Glasgow
                           Am  F 
 The daylight and the city part
                       Am     
 And I think of you in Glasgow
             F     Am          F   
 Your always safe, your always home
 
 Am          F           
 My restless heart. . . .
