[Verse]
B7                                         
■  A stick a stone it's the end of the road
                                       Gb   
It's the rest of a stump it's a little alone
                 Gb                           
It's a sliver of glass it is life it's the sun
                  Gb                          
It is night it is death it's a trap it's a gun
B               Gb       B7              
The oak when it blooms a fox in the brush
                                   Gb    
The knot of the wood the song of a thrush
                Gb                 
The wood of the wind a cliff a fall
            Gb                       
A scratch a lump it is nothing at all
                                    B7              
It's the wind blowing free it's the end of the slope
       B           E                        B   
It's a beam it's a void it's a hunch it's a hope
                   B                           
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
                                                Gb   
It's the end of the strain it's the joy in your heart
             A                        Abm 
The foot the ground the flesh and the bone
                G                  Gb   
The beat of the road a slingshot's stone
         Gb                  
A fish a flash a silvery glow
          Gb                    
A fight a bet the fange of a bow
               Gbm7                    
The bed of the well the end of the line
                                          Gb  
The dismay in the face it's a loss it's a find


[Chorus]
          B               Abm 
A spear a spike a point a nail
                             B   
A drip a drop the end of the tale
  Bmaj7        B7                              
A truckload of bricks in the soft morning light
                           Bsus4       Bmaj7
The sound of a shot in the dead of the night
         B7                  
A mile a must a thrust a bump
       B           E            B                  
It's a girl it's a rhyme it's a cold it's the mumps
                B                    
The plan of the house the body in bed
                                                 Bmaj7
And the car that got stuck it's the mud it's the mud  
          E                B   
A float a drift a flight a wing
                   Em               
A hawk a quail the promise of spring
        Gb         Gbm7                        
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
                    Gbm7                           
It's the promise of life it's the joy in your heart

[Verse]
                Gbm7                     
A snake a stick ■    it is John it is Joe
                     Gbm7                      
It's a thorn in your hand and a cut in your toe
          Gb                
A point a grain a bee a bite
          Gb                              
A blink a buzzard a sudden stroke of night
        B                Abm7
A pin a needle a sting a pain
  Abm     Abm7            B    
A snail a riddle a wasp a stain
                          Bm7         Db7 
A pass in the mountains a horse and a mule
                                                  B   
In the distance the shelves rode three shadows of blue
              B7    Bm7              Db7  
And the river talks of the waters of March
                    Cmaj7                      B    
It's the promise of life in your heart in your heart


[Chorus]
          B7                       
A stick a stone the end of the road
                               Ebm 
The rest of a stump a lonesome road
                    B7          
A sliver of glass a life the sun
          Em                      
A knife a death the end of the run
        Bmaj7      B7                     Db7  
And the river bank talks of the waters of March
                                                B    
It's the end of all strain it's the joy in your heart
