 G    C    C/G            G


1st Verse
G       C              G
As he stared past the fire
     C         G             C          C           G
His hunger to leave well it gnawed his poor heart alive
    C                 G
Her skin smelled like black cherry
 C          G
blosson perfume
   C          G           D
The sail boat sail sailed by
       C  B  A    G
in the river she cried

2nd Verse

And the wind was suddenly sweeter than Roosevelt pine
The windows broke out and the cigarette smoke drifted by
There's bums on the bowery and they were swallowed in the lights
as cars rolled on by in the night
screaming run for your life

Chorus
     Em       C/G     G
With cool and silvery eyes
     Em             C/G       G
in a heart that was fit for desires
 Em        C        G
Drown in a river of tears oh
     C         G
the river she cried left
 C            D            C  B   A   G
her with her heart made of ashes and fire

3rd Verse

one day there was a silence that washed through the town
there was no reason to speak and noone made a sound
Her eyes were indigo (in the cold?)
the cats were all calico
the sail boats they all sailed by
in the river she cried
