Grief Came Riding

Am G F C F Dm F Dm G

Am
A grief came riding
G
On the wind
F             C
Up the sun on river Thames
F                                 Dm
I was sittin' on the bank with my mouth open
F      Dm          G        G     F  C G
When I felt it entering
Am                         G
I began thinkin' about our wedding day
F                  C
And how love was a vow
F                        Dm
I was thinkin' about the chamber door
F           Dm    G       G     F  C G
Only we can enter now
Am                         G
I began thinkin' about our ancient friends
F                   C
And of kissin' them goodbye
F                            Dm
And then the wind blew under Battersea bridge
F                Dm      G       G     F  C G
And a tear broke from my eye
Am                       G
I started thinkin' about London
F                     C
And nothing good ever came from this town
F                            Dm
and if the Thames weren't so filthy
F                   Dm        G
I would jump in the river and drown

G     F  C G
Don't be a-fraid
G       C
Come on down
         Am
I'm just sittin' here
    G              C
And thinking (out) loud

Am
A grief came riding
G
On the wind
F                      C
Up the river where the bridges crouch
F              Dm
Blowin' people back and fall
F                           Dm          G       G     F  C G
From the marital bed to the psychiatric couch
Am             G
Blowin' people far apart
F                 C
Blowin' others so they collide
F                         Dm
Blowin' some poor bastard right out of the water
F                   Dm      G       G     F  C G
blowin' another one over the side
Am                    G
Hear the ancient iron bridge
F                C
And listen to it groan
F                             Dm
with the weight of a thousand people
F            Dm      G       G     F  C G
Leavin' or returning home
Am
To their failures
G
To their bordems
F
To their husbands
C
And their wives
F                            Dm
who are carving them up for dinner
F           Dm   G
before they even arrive

G     F  C G
Don't be a-fraid
G       C
Come on down
         Am
I'm just sittin' here
    G              C
And thinking (out) loud
Am                          G
And look they just blow the water
F                      C
See the saviour of the human race
F                        Dm
Where the fishes and the frogs
F             Dm            G
Has found his final resting place

G     F  C G
Don't be a-fraid
G       C
Come on down
         Am
I'm just sittin' here
    G              C
And thinking (out) loud
