Intro -x2-: Dbm Abm

Verse 1:
    Dbm                            Abm
Two lovers wander down to the shore
Dbm                  Abm
Hand in hand the evening before
    A                          B -nc-   Dbm     Abm
The day that their hands will be joined
    Dbm                           Abm
She enters and swims with the foam
   Dbm                   Abm
He bids her come out and come home
    A                  B  -nc- Dbm
The deeper and colder she goes

Chorus:
    Dbm                 Abm
The silt of our wedding bed
    Dbm                        Abm
The pebbles where you lay your head
A         B   -nc-        Dbm     Abm
Love come in, the water is fine

Verse 2:
     Dbm                                 Abm
When shе is pulled beneath thе rush -ah, ah, ah-
   Dbm                        Abm
He waits and waits, his face aflush -oh, oh-
         A                B    -nc- Dbm
'Til the pale imitation drifts up

Chorus:
    Dbm                 Abm
The silt of our wedding bed
    Dbm                        Abm
The pebbles where you lay your head
A         B
Love come in
    Dbm               Abm
The minnows our witnesses
    Dbm                   Abm
The cause of our sickness is
A         B               Dbm
Love come in, the water is fine

And you'll be her son when we're both reposed

Blood runs thicker than water
    Abm
But both feel the same when your eyes are closed

I am the river's daughter
    Abm
And you'll be her son when we're both reposed
