Bm D G F#m Time it took us Bm D To where the water was G F#m Bm That's what the water gave me D G F#m And time goes quicker Bm D Between the two of us G F#m Bm Oh, my love, don't forsake me D Em Take what the water gave me [Chorus] (You still pretty much only hear the bass but I usually play power-chords when the drums fade in) 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 F#m Be the ooooverflow End Riff: Shred these notes: E|-----21--21\---| B|--/20--20------| G|---------------| D|---------------| A|---------------| E|---------------| [Verse 2] (The same as the 1st with the riff and all) Bm D G F#m And oh poor Atlas Bm D The world's a beast of a burden G F#m Bm You've been holding on a long time D G F#m And all this longing Bm D And the ships are left to rust G F#m Em That's what the water gave us [Chorus] 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 F#m Be the ooooverflow [Bridge] (First 2 are open chords then it's switched to power chords with PM) Em 'Cause they took your loved ones Bm But returned them in exchange for you G A But would you have it any other way? Em G Would you have it any other way? A Em You could have had it any other way [Verse 3] (Instead of the usual guitar riff there are quiet PMd chords) Bm D G F#m 'Cause she's a crueller mistress Bm D And the bargain must be made G F#m Bm But oh, my love, don't forget me D G F#m Em But I let the water take me [Chorus] (Still with the bass, maybe a couple of slides and notice the change at the last line!!!) 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 G A Be the ooooverflow [Chorus] (This time with a change) Em Bm Lay me down D A Let the only sound G Bm Be the overflow D A Pockets full of stones Em Bm Lay me down D A Let the only sound G Bm D D Be the ooooverflow Then just continue with the regular Chorus chords until it fades out [Bonus] (I tried figuring out the harp bit, not sure though) E-----------------------| B---16-13---13-16-13----| G-15------15------------| D-----------------------| A-----------------------| E-----------------------| Hope you enjoy this awesome song as much as I do, Make sure to tune before you rate! ************************************ | (n) Ghost note | / Slide up | \ Slide down ************************************
