The Decemberists - Down by the water

^EmSee this ancient^G riverbed ^DSee where all our^C follies are led ^EmDown by the water and^D down by the old mai^Emn drag

^EmI was just some^G towhead teen ^DFeeling 'round for fingers to^C get in between ^EmDown by the water and^D down by the old mai^Emn drag

^EmThe season^D rubs m^Eme wrong ^EmThe summer^D swell^Cs anon So knock me ^Emdown, tear me^G up But I would ^Dbear it all broken just to^C fill my cup ^EmDown by the water and^D down by the old mai^Emn drag

^EmSweet descend this^G rabble round ^DPretty little patter of a^C seaport town ^EmRolling down the water and^D rolling down the old mai^Emn drag

^EmAll dolled up in^G gabardine The ^Dlash-flashing Leda of ^Cpier nineteen ^EmQueen of the water and^D queen of the old mai^Emn drag

^EmThe season^D rubs m^Eme wrong ^EmThe summer^D swell^Cs anon So knock me ^Emdown, tear me^G up But I would ^Dbear it all broken just to^C fill my cup ^EmDown by the water and^D down by the old mai^Emn drag

^EmThe season^D rubs m^Eme wrong ^EmThe summer^D swell^Cs anon So knock me ^Emdown, tear me^G up But I would ^Dbear it all broken just to^C fill my cup ^EmDown by the water and^D down by the old mai^Emn drag

^EmDown by the water and^D down by the old mai^Emn drag ^CDown by the water an^Dd down by the old ma^Emin drag
