Down By The Water Chords & Lyrics - Decemberists

intro x2 [Emin] , [Dmaj]

[Emin]See this ancient [Gmaj]riverbed
[Dmaj]See where all our [Cmaj]follies are led
[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin]I was just some [Gmaj]towhead teen
[Dmaj]Feeling around for fingers [Cmaj]to get in between
[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin]The season [Dmaj]rubs me wron[Emin]g
[Emin]The summer [Dmaj]swells ano[Cmaj]n
[Emin]So knock me down, [Gmaj]tear me up
[Dmaj]But I would bear it all broken just to[Cmaj] fill my cup
[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin] , [Dmaj] , [Emin] x2

[Emin]All on up this [Gmaj]tab around
[Dmaj]Pretty little patter of a [Cmaj]seaport town
[Emin]Rolling down the water and [Dmaj]rolling down the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin]All dolled up in [Gmaj]gabardine
[Dmaj]The last flashing isle to [Cmaj]appear nineteen
[Emin]Queen of the water and [Dmaj]queen of the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin]The season [Dmaj]rubs me wron[Emin]g
[Emin]The summer [Dmaj]swells ano[Cmaj]n
[Emin]So knock me down, [Gmaj]tear me up
[Dmaj]But I would bear it all broken just to[Cmaj] fill my cup
[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin] , [Dmaj] , [Emin] x4

[Emin]The season [Dmaj]rubs me wron[Emin]g
[Emin]The summer [Dmaj]swells ano[Cmaj]n
[Emin]So knock me down, [Gmaj]tear me up
[Dmaj]But I would bear it all broken just to[Cmaj] fill my cup
[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag

[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag
[Emin]Down by the water and [Dmaj]down by the old main [Emin]drag
