[Verse 1]
B E
So deep in the water

B E
Vague, the song of the night.
A E
Innocent to all the peasant gods with you,
B E
So, we drink to be renewed.
[Chorus]
A E
On the long, deep river

As the first sun quivers in the open sky ai ai

A E

B E
So, we drink to be renewed.
[Chorus]
A E
In the long cool evening,
A E
