Intro
A# A#7 A# D# A#
[Verse 1]
A#
Backwater
A#7 A# D# A#
We're sailing at the edges of time
A#
Backwater
A#7 A# D# A#
We're drifting at the waterline
[Chorus 1]
G# D#
Oh we're floating in the coastal waters
G# D#
You and me and the porter's daughters
Dm A# Dm A#
Ooh what to do not a sausage to do
G# D#
And the shorter of the porter's daughters
G# D#
Dips her hand in the deadly waters
Dm A# Dm A#
Ooh what to do in a tiny canoe
[Verse 2]
A#
Black water
A#7 A# D# A#
There were six of us but now we are five
A#
We're all talking
A#7 A# D# A#
To keep the conversation alive
[Chorus 2]
G# D#
There was a senator from Ecuador
G# D#
Who talked about a meteor
Dm A# Dm A#
That crashed on a hill in the south of Peru
G# D#
And was found by a conquistador
G# D#
Who took it to the emperor
Dm A# Dm A#
And he passed it on to a Turkish guru
[Verse 3]
A#
His daughter
A#7 A# D# A#
Was slated for becoming divine
A#
He taught her
A#7 A# D# A#
He taught her how to split and define
[Chorus 3]
G# D#
But if you study the logistics
G# D#
And heuristics of the mystics
Dm A# Dm A#
You will find that their minds rarely move in a line
G# D#
So it's much more realistic
G# D#
To abandon such ballistics
Dm A# Dm A#
And resign to be trapped on a leaf in the vine
