[Verse 1]
F A#
So deep in the water
F A#
Sleep, dark as the night
D# A#
Somehow it seems it was all another dream
F A#
Soon dissolved in the light.
[Verse 2]
F A#
Oh, we were by the waterline.
F A#
Vague, the song of the night.
D# A#
Innocent to all the peasant gods with you,
F A#
So, we drink to be renewed.
[Chorus]
D# A#
On the long, deep river
D# A#
Where the moorhens cry
D# A# F D# A#
As the first sun quivers in the open sky ai ai
[Verse 3]
F A#
Oh, she came down the river.
F A#
Soon, all the leaves were still.
D# A#
The current was strong and the river was so long.
F A#
So, we drink to be renewed.
[Chorus]
D# A#
In the long cool evening,
D# A#
Where the peacocks shiver
D# A# F D# A#
And the boat starts down the silver river way ay ay
D# A#

D# A#
As her deep eyes opened,
D# A#
In the first light seeing her,
F D# A#
Here is someone new ew ew
