B                             C#
Everybody tells me it's about time that I moved on
D#m                                    G#
And I need to learn to lighten up and how to be young!
B
But my heart is a valley...
         C#
It's so shallow and man made
      D#m
I'm scared to death if I let you in that
              G#
you'll see I'm just a fade
B                                        C#
Sometimes I feel lonely in the arms of your touch
   D#m                               G#
But I know that's just me cause nothing ever is enough

B                              C#
When I was a child I grew up by the River Lea
   D#m                                       G#
There was something in the water, now that something's in me
               B     C#           D#m
Ohhhhh I can't go back, but the reeves
                          G#
are growing out of my fingertips
        B     C#          G#
I can't go back to the river

               D#m                C#
But it's in my roots, it's in my veins
             B
It's in my blood
       D#m                      C#              G#
And I stain every heart that I use to heal the pain
            D#m
It's in my roots
            C#
It's in my veins
             B          D#m
It's in my blood and I stain every heart that
  C#                G#
I use to heal the pain

               D#m
So I blame it on the River Lea
C#                    G#
The River Lea, the River Lea
               D#m
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
C#                    G#
The River Lea, the River Lea
               D#m
So I blame it on the River Lea
C#                    G#
The River Lea, the River Lea
               D#m
Yeah I blame it on the River Lea
C#
The River Lea, the River Lea
