Florence And The Machine- What The Water Gave Me  


Cm        Gm  Time it took us
 Bb                  F To where the water was
 Cm                     Gm  That’s what the water gave me
 Cm                Gm And time goes quicker
   Bb           F Between the two of us
 Cm                  Gm  Oh, my love, don’t forsake me
 Bb                   F Take what the water gave me
 

         Cm  GmLay me down
          Bb     F Let the only sound
         Cm    Gm Be the overflow
          Bb      F Pockets full of stones
 
Lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the overflow
 
And oh poor Atlas
 The world’s a beast of a burden
 You’ve been holding on a long time
 And all this longing
 And the shields are left to rust
 That’s what the water gave us

 
So lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the overflow
 Pockets full of stones
 Lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the overflow
 
‘Cause they took your loved ones
 But returned them in exchange for you
 But would you have it any other way?
 Would you have it any other way?
 You could have had it any other way
 ‘Cause she’s a crueller mistress
 And the bargain must be made
 But oh, my love, don’t forget me
 But I let the water take me
 
Lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the over flow
 Pockets full of stones
 
Lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the overflow
 
Lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the overflow
 Pockets full of stones
 
Lay me down
 Let the only sound
 Be the overflow
