Everybody tells me itʼs about time that I moved on
C#
And I need to learn to lighten up and how to be young!
D#m
But my heart is a valley...
B
Itʼs so shallow and man made
F#
Iʼm scared to death if I let you in that
youʼll see Iʼm just a fade
C#
Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch
D#mB
But I know thatʼs just me cause nothing ever is enough
F#
When I was a child I grew up by the River Lea
C#
There was something in the water, now that somethingʼs in me
D#m
Ohhhhh I canʼt Go back, but the reeves
are growing out of my fingertips
B
I canʼt Go back to the river
F#
But itʼs in my roots, itʼs in my veins
C#
Itʼs in my blood
D#m
And I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain
B
Itʼs in my roots
F#
Itʼs in my veins
C#D#m
Itʼs in my blood and I stain every heart that
B
I use to heal the pain
F#
So I blame it on the River Lea
C#
The River Lea, the River Lea
D#m
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
B
The River Lea, the River Lea
F#
So I blame it on the River Lea
C#
The River Lea, the River Lea
D#m
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
B
The River Lea, the River Lea
F#
I should probably tell you now before itʼs way too late
C#
That I never meant to hurt you or lie straight to your face
D#m
Consider this my apology
B
I know itʼs years in advance
F#
But Iʼd rather say it now in case I never get the chance
C#
No I canʼt Go back, but the reeves
D#m
are growing out of my fingertips
B
I canʼt Go back to the river!
F#
But itʼs in my roots, itʼs in my veins
C#
Itʼs in my blood and I stain every
heart that I use to heal the pain
D#m
Itʼs in my roots, itʼs in my veins
B
Itʼs in my blood and I stain every
heart that I use to heal the pain
F#
So I blame it on the River Lea
C#
The River Lea, the River Lea
D#m
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
B
The River Lea, the River Lea
