[Verse]
A      Bm   A     E    Esus4 E D
A long walk home, riddled with regret

  D C#m Bm A  Bm     A   E  Esus4 E D
Uncommonly comfortable, but still I believe
[Bridge]
D       C#m  Bm           E                    Bm               E
That in time I think I'll see just what's been weighing down on me

            Bm                E
An unearthy void collapsed, exposing what was trapped

   Bm                         E
To release this serendipitous design
[Interlude] A Bm A E Esus4 E D D C#m Bm [Verse]
    A   Bm   A          E    Esus4 E    D       D C#m Bm
The smell of smoke, the evening sky was proof

  A     Bm                A                        E            Esus4 E      D
Belated conversation saturate anticipation for the answers that simply won't come
[Bridge]
D   C#m Bm         E
But not I, I won't ask

Esus4     Bm                E
Forget my place amongst the grass

    Esus4          Bm              E
The leaves and the trees remember me

    Esus4 Bm                  E
And in my naivety it might be seen

    Esus4    Bm              E
The pail has leaked and even if

    Esus4         Bm         E
You pour all your water into it

    Esus4       Bm              E
You end up with nothing left to drink

    Esus4         Bm             E
The well has gone dry and I with it
[Chorus]
E       Esus4         Bm
Oh, someday she'll be gone

E       Esus4         Bm
Oh, someday she'll be gone

E       Esus4         Bm
Oh, someday she'll be gone

E       Esus4         Bm
Oh, someday she'll be gone

Bm                    E       Esus4
(We'll still have her song to sing)

Bm                   
Sing softly, bring me to the lake

E            Esus4
Sing softly, sing me to the lake
