Intro:

Em Cmaj7 Am Cmaj7 x2



Verse 1:
Em                  Cmaj7
  I lay down by the river
Am                    Cmaj7         Em
  The shadows moved across me, inch by inch
Cmaj7
And all that I heard
        Am                 Cm
Was the war between the water
Cmaj7
  and the bridge

Turn to me (turn to me)
Cmaj7
turn to me (turn to me)
Am
turn to me (turn to me)
Cmaj7             Em
Turn and drink of me
 Em
(Look away) Or look away
Cmaj7
(Look away) look away
Am
(Look away) look away

And never more think of me

Verse 2:
Em                   Cmaj7
  I heard the many voices
Am            Cmaj7                 C
  Speaking to me from the depths below
Em                    Cmaj7
  This ancient wound, this catacomb
  Am               Cmaj7
Beneath the whited snow
Em
Come to me (come to me)
Cmaj7
Come to me (come to me)
Am
Come to me (come to me)

Come and drink of me

             Cmaj7            Am
And pause to see the mystery

The mystery of the word
