[C] [Em]
[C] [Em]
[C] [Em]
I lay [C] down by the river, [Em]
shadows [C] moved across me, [Em]
inch by the year.
[C] All that I heard [Em]
was the walk between the water [C] and the bridge.
[Em] Chant to me,
[C] chant to [Am] me, chant to me,
[C] chant and [Em] drink of me.
Look [C] away, look [Em]
away, look away [C] and never more [G] think of me.
[C] Chant,
[G]
[Em] chant.
[C] [Em]
[C] [Em]
I heard the [C] many voices [Am] speaking [C] to me from the depths [Em] below.
This ancient pool, [C] this catacomb beneath the watered [C] snow.
[Em] Come to me,
[C] come to [E] me, come to [C]
me, come and [Em] drink of me.
[C] Turn away, turn [Am] away, turn [C]
away and never more [G]
think of me.
Chant, [C] [G] chant.
Carry me, carry [Em]
me, [C] anyway.
[Em]

[Em]
Though I [C] lay down the hammer, [E]
I [C] will put up [Em] this stone.
[C]
The mystery [Em]
[C] of the [G]
world.
[C] Carry [G] me,
[C]
[Am] carry [D]
[Am] me, [D] carry me, carry me, carry [G] me, carry me, carry [C]
[G] me.

[D] me, carry [G] me, carry me, carry me,
[C] carry [G] me.
