Intro
E E7 E A E
[Verse 1]
E
Backwater
E7 E A E
We're sailing at the edges of time
E
Backwater
E7 E A E
We're drifting at the waterline
[Chorus 1]
D A
Oh we're floating in the coastal waters
D A
You and me and the porter's daughters
G#m E G#m E
Ooh what to do not a sausage to do
D A
And the shorter of the porter's daughters
D A
Dips her hand in the deadly waters
G#m E G#m E
Ooh what to do in a tiny canoe
[Verse 2]
E
Black water
E7 E A E
There were six of us but now we are five
E
We're all talking
E7 E A E
To keep the conversation alive
[Chorus 2]
D A
There was a senator from Ecuador
D A
Who talked about a meteor
G#m E G#m E
That crashed on a hill in the south of Peru
D A
And was found by a conquistador
D A
Who took it to the emperor
G#m E G#m E
And he passed it on to a Turkish guru
[Verse 3]
E
His daughter
E7 E A E
Was slated for becoming divine
E
He taught her
E7 E A E
He taught her how to split and define
[Chorus 3]
D A
But if you study the logistics
D A
And heuristics of the mystics
G#m E G#m E
You will find that their minds rarely move in a line
D A
So it's much more realistic
D A
To abandon such ballistics
G#m E G#m E
And resign to be trapped on a leaf in the vine
[Instrumental]
