_ _ _ _ If only we remembered _ _ as much as we [E] forget
_ The past's a distant ocean _ we can't go back [Em] to yet
[C] _ We wait down [D] in the valley [C] _
until the soil will hang
[E] _ _
[Bm] Feeling [E] the weight of water [Bm] _
built up behind [Em] the dam
[C]
Left and right, up and down, head over heels
That's the only way that we know _
[E] Down and up, [A] right and left, over [Em] and over
_ Tumbling on with the flow _
[D] Through [C] time our ghosts are swimming
_ Like schools [Gm] of _ [Em] angelfish
We have no way of feeling
The flow of water [E] under [Em] the _
[C] _ bridge
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[C] _ _ [D] We're _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[C] _ working in the fields, we're making tracks
All of our history's stacked behind our [E] backs
High [Em] up above us now, the dam wall cracks
Here comes everything we feed in the [Bm] flood of [C] memory
If only we remembered [Bm] _ as much as we forget _
[Bb] _ If only we could see [D] that what we give is what we get
[C] _ Here comes the flooding [G] water to [Bm] wash us to the sea [E] of _ _ memory _ _ _

[F] and _ on the river [C] _ _ flows
_ [Gm] _
[Bb] On and _ _ [F] on [Dm] it goes
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _
[Bb] One by _ one [Gm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ we'll all [Bm] find our _ [E] own _ way _ _ home
_ _ _ We [Gb] _

_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [Em] _
wait down in the [D] valley _ _
[E] until the soil will hang
[D] _ [Em] _
We feel the weight of water that's building up [A] behind the dam

Left and right, head over heels
We go down and up, right and left, slippery _ heels
