C# I want to reach out over the lough And feel your hand across the water Walk with you along an unapproved road Not looking over my shoulder I want to see, and I want to hear To understand your fears But we're north & south of the river C# I've been doing it wrong all of my life This holy town has turned me over A young man running from what he didn't understand But the wind from the lough just got colder and colder There was a badness that had it's way A#m Love was not lost, love will have it's day Chorus: C# North & south of the river North & south of the river Can we stop playing these old tattoos? Darling, I don't have the answer I want to meet you Where you are I don't need you to surrender There's no feeling Thats so alone As when the one you're hurting is your own Chorus: C# F# North & south of the river C# North & south of the river North & south of the river Some high ground is not worth taking Some connections are not worth making There's an old church bell no longer ringing Some old songs are not worth bringing North (Some high ground is not worth taking) North & south of the river You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA A#m C# F# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
