[Intro]
C Em C Em D
[Verse 1]
Em G
See this ancient riverbed
D C
See where all our follies are led
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
Em G
I was just some towhead teen
D C
Feeling 'round for fingers to get in between
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
[Chorus]
Em D Em
The season rubs me wrong
Em D C
The summer swells anon
Em G
So knock me down, tear me up
D C
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
[Harmonica Bit]
C Em C Em D
[Verse 2]
Em G
Sweet descend this rabble round
D C
Pretty little patter of a seaport town
Em D Em
Rolling down the water and rolling down the old main drag
Em G
All dolled up in gabardine
D C
The lash-flashing Leda of pier nineteen
Em D Em
Queen of the water and queen of the old main drag
[Chorus]
Em D Em
The season rubs me wrong
Em D C
The summer swells anon
Em G
So knock me down, tear me up
D C
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
[Instrumental Break]
C Em C Em D
Em G D C Em D Em
[Chorus]
Em D Em
The season rubs me wrong
Em D C
The summer swells anon
Em G
So knock me down, tear me up
D C
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
[Outro]
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
C D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
