Water & Air by Cat Power

From 1996's 'What Would The Community Think'. Figured this one out by accident. I think
that for the most part it's correct, but she strings together the riffs throughout the
song and the patterns are hard to pin down, so listen to the song to get a good idea on
it. I've provided a guide on the structure with timing, but it may not be one hundred
percent perfect.

Lyrics:
I was dragged out
By the shore man
A very poor man
A very nice man
A family man
My lover drifted down the river
Below the dark water
The devil all around
Yesterday on the street
Someone called out your name
Someone thought that you were me
Last night there was a party
I could not go
I walked around it
I thought about it
All night long
Today there is a newspaper
About you and me
And the day we were married
The same day
The same day they fell in love
The same day they died in love
I did not want you to die alone
Rusty river, run down
Run, run as fast as you can, oh, run
Rusty river, run ragged
And drag my lover south back to me
I'll meet him there
Water and air
Oh, to be at the bottom of a river
Below the dark water
The devil all around
The devil all around
