[Verse 1]
[Am]Time[C] it took us[F][C]
To [Am]where the [C]water was
[F]That’s what the [C]water [Am]gave me
And [C]time goes quick[F]er[C]
Bet[Am]ween the [C]two of us
But [F]oh, my love, [C]don't for[Am]sake me
[C]Take what the water [Dm]gave me

[Chorus 1]
Lay me [Dm]down[Am]
Let the [C]only [G]sound

Let the [C]on ly [G]sound
Be the [F]o- [Am]verflow[C]

[Verse 2]
[Am]And oh, [C]poor Atlas[F]
[C]The world's a bea[Am]st of a burden[C]

And [C]all this [F]longing[C]
And the [Am]ships are [C]left to rust
[F]That's what the [C]water [Dm]gave us

[Chorus 2]
So lay me [Dm]down[Am]
Let the [C]only [G]sound

'Cause they took your [G]loved ones
But returned them in ex[Dm]change for you
But would you have it any [F]other [G]way?
Would you [Dm]have it any [F]other way?
You couldn't [G]have it any [Dm]other way
[Am]'Cause she's a cruel[C] mistr[F]ess
[Em]And a barg[Am]ain must[C] be made
But [F]oh, my love, [Em]don't for[Am]get me
When [C]I let the water t[F]ake m[Em]e[Dm]
