I want to reach out over the Loch
F
Feel your hand across the water
C G
Walk with you along an unapproved road
F
Not looking over my shoulder
C G
I wanna see, and I wanna hear
Am F
To understand your fears
C G F
But we're north and south of the river
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
As the wind from the Loch just blew colder and colder
There was a badness that had its way
But love wasn't lost, it just got mislaid
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
Can we stop playing these old tattoo's
Darling I don't have the answer
I wanna meet you where you are
I don't need ya to surrender

There is no feeling so alone
As when the one you're hurting is your own
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
C G
Some high ground is not worth taking
Am F
And some connections are not worth making
C G
There's an old church bell no longer ringing
Am F
And some old songs are not worth bringing
C G F
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
