Ribbon Chords & Lyrics - Billie Marten

[INTRO]

[Db] [B]

[F#m]Ribbon of the river by my[B] side
I walk the shore and watch it[F#] unwind[Bm] [B]
The [F#]railway tracks still leave a glimpse of the l[B]ight
From the train, trailing sparks of g[F#m]old behi[Bm]nd

And[F#m] as soon as you've [Dbm]seen it, it's g[B]one
And[D] as soon as you'[Dbm]ve seen it [F#m]it's[A] gone[B]

[D]Secrets of the c[F#m]ity
[D]Make an aching in [A]my heart
[D]And the mysteries t[F#m]hat tease me so
I l[D]ong to belong but I a[Dbm]lways ha[A]ve to go[B]

[F#m]People stare and wonder why I st[B]ray
They don't understand that wander[F#m]ing's my [B]way
I'll[F#] never stop, though time's slipping aw[B]ay
The elusive light, shining strange[F#m] on m[B]y face

[D]And as soon as you'v[Dbm]e seen it, it's[B] gone
[D]And as soon as you'v[Dbm]e seen it, it's[B] gone

[D]Secrets of the cit[F#m]y
[D]Make an aching in my h[A]eart
[D]And the mysteries that t[F#m]ease me so
I long to belong, b[A]ut I always hav[E]e to g[B]o

Hope [D]ties me up with d[E]isconte[Bm]nt
Since[D] the day I[Dbm] first w[Bm]ent
[F#m]Yearning to be[Dbm] back ag[Bm]ain
[D]How will I [E]return, and[Bm] when?

[D]Secrets of the c[F#m]ity
[D]Make an aching in h[A]eart
[D]And the mysteries that [F#m]tease me so
I long to bel[D]ong but I alw[Dbm]ays have[E] to go[B]

Thank you for reading! Please rate and comment!
I hope I got this right, it's my first one.
I couldn't find any chords for this song, so I decided to transcribe it for you.
