Down By The Water Uke tab by The Decemberists

Em               G
See this ancient riverbed
D                 C 
See where all the follies led
Em      
Down by the water and
D                    Em
Down by the old main drag

Em              G
I was just some tow-head teen
D                                C
Feeling round for fingers to get in between
Em
Down by the water and
D                    Em
Down by the old main drag

Em         D       Em/G 
The season rubs me wrong
Em         D      C
The summer swells anon

              Em           G
So knock me down, tear me up,
            D                          C
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Em
Down by the water and
D                    Em

Em                 G
Sweet descend this rabble round
D                             C
The pretty little patter of a seaport town
Em
Rolling in the water and
D                         Em
Rolling down the old main drag
  
Em               G
All dolled up in gabardine
D                         C
The lash-flashing Leda Of Pier Nineteen
Em
Queen of the water and
D                     Em   
Queen of the old main drag

Em         D       Em/G
The season rubs me wrong
Em         D      C
The summer swells anon
