What The Water Gave Me Acordes

	  



Em           Bm 
Time it took us 
D                  A 
To where the water was 
 Em                    Bm  
That’s what the water gave me 
 Em                Bm 
And time goes quicker 
   D           A 
Between the two of us 
 Em                  Bm  
Oh, my love, don’t forsake me 
 D                   A 
Take what the water gave me 
  

       Em  Bm 
Lay me down 
          D     A 
Let the only sound 
         Em    Bm 
Be the overflow 
          D      A 
Pockets full of stones 
          
         
       Em  Bm 
Lay me down 
          D      A 
Let the only sound 
         Em Bm D    A 
Be the overflow 
  

Em           Bm 
And oh poor Atlas 
 D                  A               
The world’s a beast of a burden 
  Em                    Bm                
You’ve been holding on a long time 
Em             Bm     
And all this longing 
D                  A           
And the shields are left to rust 
  Em                  D          A 
That’s what the water gave us 

  
       Em  Bm 
So Lay me down 
          D     A 
Let the only sound 
         Em    Bm 
Be the overflow 
          D      A 
Pockets full of stones 

       Em  Bm 
Lay me down 
          D      A 
Let the only sound 
         Em Bm D    A 
Be the overflow 
  
Em                    Bm 
‘Cause they took your loved ones 
D                          A 
But returned them in exchange for you 
Em                        Bm  
But would you have it any other way? 
Em                        Bm  
Would you have it any other way? 
D                          A  
You could have had it any other way 
Em                      Bm 
‘Cause she’s a crueller mistress 
D                A 
And the bargain must be made 
Em                      Bm 
But oh, my love, don’t forget me 
D                   A 
But I let the water take me 
  


Lay me down 
Let the only sound 
Be the over flow 
Pockets full of stones 
  

Lay me down 
Let the only sound 
Be the overflow 
  

Lay me down 
Let the only sound 
Be the overflow 
Pockets full of stones 
  

Lay me down 
Let the only sound 
Be the overflow
