Muddy Waters

Intro 4x: G#m  E  B  C#m

       G#m                              E
We are kneeling at the river's edge and tempting
       B                              C#m
All the steps to follow closer right behind
       G#m                              E
Is it only when you feel a part is empty
       B                              C#m
That it's gnawing at the corners of your mind

G#m         E
    I will ask you for mercy
B          C#m
    I will come to you blind
G#m              E
    What you'll see is the worst me
B           C#m
    Not the last of my kind

G#m   E
Oooo-o-oh
B                       C#m
In the muddy water we're falling
G#m   E
Oooo-o-oh
B                       C#m
In the muddy water we're crawling
G#m       E
Holds me down
B        C#m
Hold me now
G#m       E
Sold me out
B                       C#m
In the muddy waters we're falling

( G#m  E  B  C#m ) (2x)

      G#m                              E
It is not clear why we choose the fire pathway
         B                              C#m
Where we end is not the way that we had planned
        G#m                                E
All the spirits gather 'round like it's our last day
       B                                      C#m
To get across you know we'll have to raise the sand

G#m           E
    Oooh, I will ask you for mercy
B          C#m
    I will come to you blind
G#m              E
    What you'll see is the worst me
B               C#m
    I'm not the last of my kind

G#m   E
Oooo-o-oh
B                       C#m
In the muddy water we're falling
G#m   E
Oooo-o-oh
B                       C#m
In the muddy water we're crawling
G#m       E
Holds me down
B        C#m
Hold me now
G#m       E
Sold me out
B                       C#m
In the muddy waters we're falling

G#m      E
Ooooh, Don't fail me now
         B                  C#m
Put your arms around me and pull me out
G#m       E
Ooooh, I know I'm found
          B                 C#m
With your arms around me, oh save me now

( G#m  E  B  C#m ) (2x)

G#m   E

Holds me down
B        C#m
Hold me now
G#m       E
Sold me out
B                       C#m
In the muddy waters we're falling
