Buried In WaterCifra

Verse 

Am 
Down     
Dm 
Under the ground 
Am 
There's a town there     
E 
I've been down there 
Am                      Dm 
In the middle of the lake        
E                       Am 
I hold your hand, for goodness' sake 


Verse 

Am                                    Dm 
When the women and the kids are asleep 
Am 
The walls there  
                E 
And the skin of the sheep 
Am                      Dm 
So lock all the windows and doors        
E                       Am 
The Devil's coming for you and yours 


 
Dm                      G 
Love was all that it could give 
C                               F 
But it died so other towns could live  
Dm                              G 
They don't bury bodies from the drowned 
C                       F 
But they drowned our little town 



Bridge
 
Dm                      Am 
Like a lamb to his slaughter     
Dm 
Buried in water          
Am 
Buried in water          
Dm 
Buried in water 


Verse 

Am 
When the leaves  
Dm 
Go floating away 
Am                      E 
In the pale moonlight of day     
Am                      Dm 
Iury anchors in our ghosts 
E                       Am 
And we can let our heartbeats go 


 
Dm                      G 
Love was all that it could give 
C                               F 
But it died so other towns could live  
Dm                              G 
They don't bury bodies from the drowned 
C                       F 
But they drowned our little town 



Outro 

Dm                              Am 
We're like the lambs to its slaughter    
Dm 
Buried in water         
Am 
Buried in water  
Dm 
Buried in water
