verse 1 

D        A/C#              G/D      D 
Standing strong he let the old cogs run 
G                A     D  
Winding down the river weirs  
D      A/C#           G/D    D  
Manual work that he'd always done  
  G            A    D  
Dependably for many years  
D             A/C#          G/D     D 
Evening would come and he'd ramble along  
    G              A        D 
The banks with his tools of trade  
D            A/C#      G/D   D 
Boats sailed by as the reeds bow  
G               A         D  
Gently with the wash they made

verse 2 

D              A/C#         G/D      D 
Passing by the cinema would take him home  
G           A          D  
Not since a child he'd been  
D               A/C#         G/D   D 
But you'd never see him in a restaurant  
G            A        D 
Only lived within his means  
D               A/C#       G/D    D 
Happy though he was with a simple life  
G              A      D 
Baffled seeing others dreams  
D            A/C#       G/D     D  
Only felt complete ever working on  
    G             A       D   
And living by the flowing stream

       G   A       D        Em 
So the sun shines above his town  
G          A      Bm 
Welcoming another day  
        G     A     D     Em 
And the still water rises up  
G         A         D 
Even on a Christmas day

verse 2 

D         A/C#          G/D     D  
Everybody saw there was nothing like  
    G             A          D 
The rainfall that came their way  
D                  A/C#      G/D        D 
People close their doors and windows to try  
    G              A       D 
And keep the water well at bay  
D          A/C#             G/D       D 
Do we understand the simple things in life  
G             A       D 
Heaven may be what we know  
D                A/C# G/D       D 
Falling from the mill late that night  
G                  A        D 
The waters finally took him home

        G     A     D     Em 
And the still water rises up  
G         A         D
