To The Water

F#m E A
F#m E A D


[Verse]

  F#m      E      A
I walked into the bedroom
     F#m   E    A
on a rainy afternoon
      Bm    A   D
and I heard her say to me
      F#m    E   A
not a moment too soon

         F#m   E         A
She said child don't you worry
       F#m    E       A
I will always be with you
         Bm  A     D
From the way she'd looked at me
    F#m       E     A
I believed it to be true
         G              D
When she said, when she said


[Chorus]

                      Bm
I'm ready to close my eyes
                D
steady and hold tight
                      F#m
I'm gonna be crossing over
                           E
to heaven and the great divide and I
                      Bm           
I'm ready to close my eyes, they're
              D
 heavy and so wide
                     F#m           
I can feel it put me under, steady 
              E
as the rising tide
               Bm
Take me to the water
                           D
by the road that leads you down
Continues after the ad
E          F#m   E A
And lay me down


[Interlude]

F#m E A D


[Verse]

       F#m   E      A
It was early in the evening
         F#m      E         A
She gave all that she could give
      Bm   A   D
And I felt her leaving me
      F#m     E      A
But I learned how to live
         G              D
When she said, when she said


[Chorus]

                      Bm
I'm ready to close my eyes
                D
steady and hold tight
                      F#m
I'm gonna be crossing over
                           E
to heaven and the great divide and I
                      Bm           
I'm ready to close my eyes, they're
              D
 heavy and so wide
                     F#m           
I can feel it put me under, steady 
              E
as the rising tide
               Bm
Take me to the water
                           D
by the road that leads you down
E          F#m E A
And lay me down
       F#m E A C#m D
Lay me down


[Chorus]

                      Bm
I'm ready to close my eyes
                D
steady and hold tight
                      F#m
I'm gonna be crossing over
                           E
to heaven and the great divide and I
                      Bm           
I'm ready to close my eyes, they're
              D
 heavy and so wide
                     F#m           
I can feel it put me under, steady 
              E
as the rising tide

               Bm
Take me to the water
                           D
by the road that leads you down
               F#m
Take me to the water
            E
Scatter me around

               Bm
Take me to the water
                           D
by the road that leads you down
               F#m
Take me to the water
            E
Scatter me around

               Bm
Take me to the water
                           D
by the road that leads you down
E          F#m E A
And lay me down
       F#m E A D
Lay me down
