Introduction: Am D Em D
Am D
Deep drum
Em
Hear her sing and light
and making forward
D
from the water ways
and all's just waking up
Am D
I break
Em
for it to lighten up these worries
D
Lighten up these walls
to feel the depth too
Am
Feel my body open now and clear
D
Feel my body moving
Em
to the pulse of the outer wake
D
Oh, I knew I had to get through
Am
I've been in the carbon lines and haze
D
Where everybody's off
Em
when they're on, when they're on their way
D
Oh, I just want to get through mh mh
Verse: 2
Am D
I find
Em
open up the hours
D
and the whole thing starts to follow
It won't hollow me today
Am D
I wait for it
Em
to lighten up be honest
D
Bring me straight deep down,
no telling me to
Am
Looking at the open skies and truths
D
where everybody's under the sun
Em
It's the only way, hey
D
Honest eyes come through my friend
Am
Yes signs are in the air I drew
D
Feel my body moving to the pulse
Em
of the outer wake
D
Oh, I can really feel it coming through
Am D
Bayou and the beating drum, bayou bayou
Bayou and the beating
Em
Bayou and the beating drum
D
Bayou
C
Did you hear the old one hum? Bayou
Em
Underneath the evening sun, bayou
D
Bayou and the beating drum
D
Bayou

Verse: 3
Am D
I praise
Em
I get in and all I hear's the honest call
D
the resonance, the sounds so deep and tame
Am D
A wait
Em
for it to lighten up be honest
D
Bring it straight deep down
and feel the depth too
Am
Feel the body singing loud and clear
D
Feel the body rolling to the pulse
Em
that's been underway, oh
D
The waves are coming you way
Am
And on the water drifting proud, serene
D
I tell you I belong to be out
Em
and go all the way, oh
Bridge
D
When I fall, I fall
D
It's the land that makes me tall
D
I could run, I could run to my hearts call
D
I feel heavier, heavier from it all
D
I can hear the ancient sounds of...
Am D
Bayou and the beating drum, bayou bayou
Bayou and the beating
Em
Bayou and the beating drum
D
Bayou
C
Did you hear the old one hum? Bayou
Em
Underneath the evening sun, bayou
D
Bayou and the beating drum
D
