Lady On The Water Chords & Tabs
Should be more accurate than the other ones here. You can watch them playing here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaH-zhseWP0 and get a pretty good view of what they
are playing. Just tell me if there's anything that bothers you in this tab or in life
in general. Enjoy!
Chords do have some hammer on/pull offs that I left out.
You can just play Am-G instead of the Riff.

lady on the water

make me rich, make me poor,
C G
lay your flowers at my door

lady on the water

bring me branches, bring me twine
C G
wrap my heart upon the vine
Em C G
with your wine dye my feathers

as the cock crows giving time

with your jacket blue and strange

driven deep into this maze

all of my days

my lady on the water

cause i'll be in my own country
