Verse 1
G 
Three, four...
And Florence is the river
D 
And if you close your eyes she'll take you
C 
To a village north of Paris
G 
Sometime in late September
And you'll hear a baby crying
D 
And  she'll be close beside you
C 
And you'll hold her hand
And never let it go
G 
D 
And she'll hold you with her eyes
C 
And she'll tell you it could
G 
never be that way
C 
G 
And Florence is the river
D 
that guides you through
G 
the shadows of the day
And Florence is the silence
D 
as you walk alone together
C 
Listening to the heartbeat
G 
of the in the company of Rachmaninoff,
D 
From a concert never heard,
C 
G 
He'll kiss her lips and whisper,
Vous avez qu 'à très mal qu 'il est.
D 
And she'll hold you with her eyes,
C 
and she'll tell you it could
G 
never be that way.
And Florence is the silence
D 
G 
that fills the empty pages of the day.
D 
And there's no place
that you'd rather be
C 
than someplace you could never be
G 
You will have her memory,
D 
G 
and  she will have your heart
Florence is the river,
D 
and if you close your eyes,
she'll take you
C 
to a village north of Paris
G 
sometime in late December
Where you'll see a baby smiling
D 
and she'll be right beside you
C 
and you'll hold her hand
G 
and never let it go
you
