The Handsome Family - The forgotten lake

Come with ^Gme to the ^Dforgotten l^Gake, Where ^Ccovered wagons and the ^Gwings of missing ^Dplanes, ^AmFloat between blind fish under^Emneath the velvet waves.

Strange lights ^Gfly a^Dcross the rocky ^Gbeach, ^CGirls in white nightgowns wander ^Gbarefoot in their ^Dsleep, And the ^Amvapors of dreams wind in ^Emcircles 'round their feet.

^CDown, ^Gdown, float them down, ^AmLet the waters ^Emfloat them down, To ^Gwhere they'll re^Dmember every^Gthing.

Golden ^Gflash at the ^Dcorner of your ^Geye, Those ^Cshadows that climb your ^Gdarkened walls at ^Dnight, Am C G D, G They open a door lit with forgotten light.

In dark ^Gwater the ^Dgrey veil falls a^Gway, We'll ^Csee with closed eyes and drift ^Gsoftly in the ^Drain, Like ^Amdragonflies in love, we'll dance a^Emcross the silver waves.

^CDown, ^Gdown, float us down, ^AmLet the waters ^Emfloat us down, To ^Gwhere we'll re^Dmember every^Gthing.
