The Water Lyrics
by Feist
The Water - Feist
Tuning ---- Standard
There isn't really too much of a strummy chordy (yes, Strummy Chordy)
guitar part in this song, so I kind of had to improvise here and
there, but I think this is pretty close to what should be used.
Chords Used:
Intro: Dm, C, G -x2
Verse 1:
Telegraph cables hum
And few can decipher who the message is from
And deliver it quietly
cause some don't get much company
Verse 2:
The harbour becomes the sea
And lighting the house keeps it collision free
Understand the lay of the land
And don't let it hurt you
Or it will be the first to
Chorus:
The water, the water
Didn't realize
It's dangerous size
The mountain, the mountain
Came to recognize
It's steep and rocky sides
More than realized
Verse 3:
Pale as a pile of bones
You hope for your babies
And this is how they grow
Wind-battered, knocked over
The teeth by the shoulder
Watching the grey sky
That's acting like a good guy
Chorus:
The water, the water
Came to recognize
It's dangerous size
The mountain, the mountain
Came to recognize
It's steep and rocky sides
Came to recognize
It's steep and rocky sides
More than realize
