Down By The Water


Intro: C   Em   C   Em  D   


Em               G 
See this ancient riverbed 
D                       C 
See where all the follies led 
Em                              D                             Em 
Down by the water, and down by the old main drag 

Em                  G 
I was just some towhead teen 
D                                          C 
Feelin' 'round for fingers to get in-between 
Em                              D                             Em  
Down by the water, and down by the old main drag 

Pre-Chorus: 

Em             D          Em 
The season rubs me wrong 
Em              D                   C 
The summer swells on and on 

 
                     Em               G 
So knock me down, tear me up 
                 D                                 C 
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup 
Em                             D                             Em  
Down by the water and down by the old main drag 
 

BREAK:  C   Em   C   Em D 

Verse: 

Em                        G 
Sweet decsend this rabble 'round 
D                                   C 
the pretty little patter of a seaport town 
Em                              D                                  Em  
Rolling in the water and rolling down the old main drag 

Em                 G 
All dolled up in gabardine 
D                                  C 
The lash-flashing Leda of pier nineteen 
Em                              D                             Em  
Queen of the water and queen of the old main drag 

Pre-Chorus: 

Em             D          Em  
The season rubs me wrong 
Em              D                  C 
The summer swells on and on 

 
                     Em               G 
So knock me down, tear me up 
                 D                                 C 
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup 
Em                             D                             Em  
Down by the water and down by the old main drag 
 

Break C   Em   C   Em  D    Em   G   D   C   Em   D 

Pre-Chorus:

Em             D          Em 
The season rubs me wrong 
Em              D                  C 
The summer swells on and on 

 
                     Em               G 
So knock me down, tear me up 
                 D                                 C 
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup 
Em                             D                             Em  
Down by the water and down by the old main drag (3x)
