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
