Rock Me On the Water | Jackson Browne | Lyrics ☾☀ Chords

Oh people, [Em] look around you, [C] the signs are [G] everywhere
_ [C] You've left it for [G] _ [F] somebody other than [C] you [D] to be the one to [Em] care
_ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ [G] You're lost inside your houses, _ there's no [C] time to find you now
[A] _ _
While your [G] _ walls are burning [D] and your towers are turning
[Em] I'm gonna leave you [E] here [Em] and try to get [C] down to the sea [G] somehow _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [G] The road is filled [Em] with homeless souls, [C] every woman, child and [G] man
_ You have no idea where [C] they will go, [D] they'll help you if [E] they _ [Em] can
_ _ _ [G] But everyone must [Em] have some thought that's gonna [C] pull them through _ [A] somehow
_ While [G] the fires are raging [D] hotter and hotter
[Em] The sisters of the sun are gonna [C] rock me on the water now
[G] _ _ [D] Rock me [C] on the water, sister [G] will you [D] soothe my _
[C] fevered brow
_ _ [G] Rock [F#m] me [Em] on the water, _ [A] I'll get down to the sea [C] somehow
I'll get down to the sea [G] somehow _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [Dm] _ _
[C] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [G] Oh people, [Em] look among you, [C] it's there your hope must [G] lie
[C] There's a [G] seabird above [F] you, gliding [C] in one place, [D] like Jesus [Em] in the sky _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] We all must do [E] the best we can and then [C] hang on to that _ [A] gospel cloud
When [D] my [G] life is [D] over, I'm gonna stand before the Father
But [Em] the sisters of the sun are gonna [C] rock me on the water [G] now
Rock me [C] on the water, sister [G] will you soothe [D] my _
[C] fevered brow
_ [G] Rock [F#m] me [E] on the water, [D] _ [A] maybe I'll remember _
[C] Maybe I'll remember [G] now
Rock me [C] on the water, the [G] wind [D] is with me [C]
now
_ Rock [F#m] me [Em] on the water, [D] _ [A] I'll get down to the sea [C] somehow
I'll get down to the sea [G] somehow
[B] Rock me on the [E] water
_ Rock [B] me [C] now
[D] _
Rock [B] me [C] on the water _
[G] _ Rock me [C] now
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
