Tom: G
G C G C
[Verse]
G C
And so it comes to an end
G C Am G
And everything that you thought turns out to be
G C
Feathers borne on the wind
G C Am
Bearing witness that gravity will win
Am Am
And take you for a spin
[Pre-Chorus]
D D C G
They're bearing witness to
D D C C
The water bleaches it out of you
D D C G
The cleansing showers fall
D D G C G C
They're falling, falling
[Chorus]
C G G C
Lay me down in the bulrushes
C G G C
Send me down, down to the sea
C G G C
Float me on this raging river
C G G C
Leave me just my memory
[Verse]
C D
Now I start to see
D C
Just as it's ending
C Am
The river is bending
C G C G C
And drowning me
G C
The snow that falls in December
G C Am G
Could be the rain in the Gulf of Mexico
G C
And though I know I'm a sinner
G C Am
I'm still an angel when I get back to home
Am Am
Where I can do no wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
D D C G
They're bearing witness to
D D C C
The water bleaches it out of you
D D C G
The cleansing showers fall
D D G C G C
They're falling, falling
[Chorus]
C G G C
Lay me down in the bulrushes
C G G C
Send me down, down to the sea
C G G C
Float me on this raging river
C G G C
Leave me just my memory
[Verse]
D
Now I start to see
D C
Just as it's ending
C Am
The river is bending
C G C G C
And drowning me
G C G C
Drowning me
[Chorus]
C G G C
Lay me down in the bulrushes
C G G C
Send me down, down to the sea
C G G C
Float me on this raging river
C G G C
Leave me just my memory
G C
Lay me down
G C
Lay me down
