Wash Me Down
::Intro::
D - G/D (Repeated)
::Verse #1::
D
Last Friday they had a masquerade
G D
Everyone was there
A
All decked out in stars and silver
G D
Moonlight in their hair
D
Darkness fell down around us
G D
We were lost in the mystery
A
Left our clothes by the side of the road
G D
And jumped into the sea
::Chorus::
G
Wash me down
D
Wash me down
Bm F#m
Take me away from the beating drums
G A
Let the great world go by
G
Wash me down
D
Wash me down
A
And when you go
D
I will never forget
::Verse #2::
D
I heard a rumour ‘bout a miracle
G D
In a town by the Buffalo Leap
A
People came from miles around
G D
To watch the statue weep
D
They filled the square with their caravans
G D
Cameras lit up the trees
A
Every time a light went off
G D
They fell down to their knees
::Chorus::
G
Wash me down
D
Wash me down
Bm F#m
Take me away from the beating drums
G A
Let the great world go by
G
Wash me down
D
Wash me down
A
And when you go
D
I will never forget
::Solo::
G - D - A - D
::Interlude::
D - G/D
::Verse #3::
D
I swear I’ve seen your face before
G D
Somewhere when I was young
A
You make me feel the miles I’ve walked
G D
The things I’ve left undone
D
Come here and lay beside me
G D
One more hour, that’s all
A
When you leave I’ll close the door
G D
Maybe then I’ll fall
::Chorus::
G
Wash me down
D
Wash me down
Bm F#m
Take me away from the burning sun
G A
Let the great world go by
G
Wash me down
D
Wash me down
A
And when you go
D
I will never forget
A
And when you go
G - D
I will never forget
