The Decemberists
Key : Em
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
C  | Em | D 
Em | D  

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em               G
See this ancient riverbed
D                C
See where all my folly's led
Em                    D                    Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
                G
I was just some towhead teen
D                                 C
Feeling 'round for fingers to get in between
Em                    D                    Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
           D          Em
The season rubs me wrong
           D         C
The summer swells anooon
              Em
So knock me down, tear me up

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
G              D                          C
 But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
  Em        D         Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
C | Em | D | Em | D 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Em                 G
Sweet descend this rabble 'round
    D                         C
The pretty little patter of a seaport t own
Em                       D                         Em
Rolling in the water and rolling down the old main drag
                 G
All dolled up in gabardine
    D                    C
The lashflashing Leda of pier nineteen
  Em                   D                     Em
Queen of the water and queen of the old main drag

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
    Em     D          Em
The season rubs me wrong
           D         C
The summer swells anoon

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
            Em            G
So knock me down, tear me up
              D                          C
But I would bear it all broken just to fiill my cup
     Em                 D                  Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag

[Bridge (2)]

Em | G  | D  | C  
Em | D  | Em 



[Chorus (3)]

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