The Water

    Dm        C      G
The telegraph cables hum
    Dm        C              G
And few can decipher who the message
 is from
    Dm      C  G

Dm        C       G
Pale as a pile of bones
    Dm            C
You hope for your babies
     G
And this is how they grow
     Gm
Wind-battered, knocked over
    Dm
The teeth by the shoulder
Gm
Watching the grey sky
