The Water - Feist

there, but I think this is pretty close to what should be used.

Intro: Dm, C, G -x2


Verse 1:

Dm        C      G
Telegraph cables hum

Dm          C                G
And few can decipher who the message is from

    Dm      C  G
And deliver it quietly

      Dm         C        G
cause some don't get much company



Dm, C, Gm -x2


Verse 2:

    Dm         C        G
The harbour becomes the sea

    Dm           C              G
And lighting the house keeps it collision free

     Fm        Dm
Understand the lay of the land

    Fm           Fm
And don't let it hurt you

   Dm              Dm
Or it will be the first to



Chorus:


     Am  Dm     Am  Dm
The water, the water

         G
Didn't realize

         C
It's dangerous size

     Am     Dm     Am     Dm
The mountain, the mountain

          G
Came to recognize

               C
It's steep and rocky sides

           Dm      C  G
More than realized


Dm, C, Gm -x2


Verse 3:

Dm        C       G
Pale as a pile of bones

    Dm            C
You hope for your babies

         G
And this is how they grow

     Dm                C
Wind-battered, knocked over

    G
The teeth by the shoulder

Dm                 C
Watching the grey sky

       Fm                 C
That's acting like a good guy

The water, the water

The mountain, the mountain

Came to recognize

               C
It's steep and rocky sides

          Dm      C  G
More than realize
