[Em] [C]
[Em] [D] [Em] See this ancient [G] river bend, [D] see where all [C] the volleys [Em] led
Down by the water, [D] down by the old [Em] main drag
Our judge's [G] song so had seemed [D] even round for fingers [C] to get in between
[Em] Down by the water, [D] down by the old [Em] main drag
[D] Seasons don't [Em] make me wrong, sunny, [D] clouds [C] unknown
So it's not for [Em] me to stand [G] me up, but I [D] would bear it all
Broken [C] to the toe mark up
[Em] Down by the water, [D] down by the old [Em] main drag

[Em] [C]
[Em] [D] [Em] Sweet scent [G] that's traveled around [D] the pretty little batter [C] of a seaport town
[Em] Rolling in the water, [D] rolling down the old [Em] main drag
All's [G] often gathered in the [D] last splash and lead [C] up
Here not in vain, [Em] the queen of the water, [D] the queen of the [Em] old main drag
Seasons [D] don't [Em] make me wrong, summer [D] swells [C] unknown
So [Em] it's not for me to stand [G] me up, but I [D] would bear it all
Broken [C] to the toe mark up
