Dm A
The dying light was nearly dead
C#m A
By the time we reached the water?s edge.
Dm F
We saw the river beating on the river bank
C E
For the way that it held it in her riverbed.
B A
It?s cold, it?s dark,
C E
It?s not for people with uneasy hearts.
B A
But if you?re with me on the other side,
C G B
Strike up the band we have survived.
A E A E x3
F#
And do they beat that drum to get you back home,
Or do they beat it to keep you away?
Dm A
Don?t be surprised at your regrets.
C#m A
Don?t be surprised that the water made you wet.
Dm
There?s a shallow down river
F
Where the water will forgive you,
C E
Soft skin, your lukewarm beds
B A
Follow me, oh follow me
C E
Allow me to play the voyager.
B
I?ll try to keep you as dry
A
As the hollowed out tree that
C G B
You would be wrapped in another man?s fur
A E A E
So take a dive
A E A E
Oh take a dive
A E A E
Oh take it out on the stepping stones that make the water lie
C E C E
So take a dive, oh take a dive
A E A E
Ohohohoh-ohohoh, ohohohoh-ohohoh
C E C E
Take that hair out of your damned eyes
A E
While the waves are rain
A E
And the sum you'll pay.
F#
Do they beat that drum to get you back home,
Or do they beat it to keep you away?
C#m E
Will you burn your bridges down
Singing lalalalalalala
C#m E
Will you burn your bridges down
Singing lalalalalalala
C#m E
Will you bang your drum to the blazing sound
Singing lalalalalalala
G B
Will you turn away?
G B
How can you turn away?
