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