Chords for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds- Water's Edge

_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ They take apart their bodies [Am] like toys for the local boys
[A] Because they're always there at the edge of the water.
They come from the capital these city girls
Go way down where the stones meet the sea
_ _ _ [Am] All you young [G] girls, where do you hide?
[F] Down by the water [Am] the restless tide
_ _ [A] _ _ And the local boys hide on the mound and watch
Reaching for [B] the speech and the word to be heard and the [Am] boys grow [D] hard hard [Am] to be heard
Hard to be heard as they reach for the speech and search for the [A] word on the water's edge
You grow old and you grow cold
Yeah, you grow old and you grow cold
[Am] _ _ _ They would come in their hordes these city girls
With white strings flowing from their ears [Dm] as the local [Am] boys behind the mound
Think [A] long and hard about the girls from the capital who dance at the water's edge
shaking their _
_ [Am] [Dm] asses
[Am] _ _ All you young lovers, [G] where do you hide?
[F] Down by the water the [Am] restless tide
_ [A] _ _ _ With a Bible of tricks they do with their legs [Am] the girls reach for the [Dm] speech and the speech to be [Am] heard
To be hard the local boys team down the mound and seize the girls _
[A] Who shriek at the edge of the water
Shriek to speak and reach for the speech.
Yeah reach for the speech
And _ _ _ you grow _ _ [Dm] cold
Yeah, you grow [Am] old
And you grow cold
_ [Am] Their [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ [Am] legs wired to the world like [Dm] Bibles open to be [A] speared and taken their bodies apart like toys
[Am] They dismantle themselves by the water's [Am] edge
And reach for the speech [A] and the wide wide world
_ _ God knows our local boys _ _ _ _ _
[G] Yeah, it's the will of love
it's [F] the thrill of love
a [Dm]-butt the chill of love
is [Am] comin' on _
It's [G] the will of love
[F] it's the thrill of love
a-butt [Dm] the chill of love
is [Am] comin' on
_ [G] it's the will of love
It's [F] the thrill of love, but [Dm] the chill of love _ [Am] is coming [A] down, people. _ _ _
