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
