[Intro] Am  Em  Am  Em 

[Verse 1]

    Am
Two lovers wander down to the shore
 Em
Am                   Em
Hand in hand the evening before
    C                          G
The day that their hands will be
N.c.   Am      Em
Joined
    Am                            Em
She enters and swims with the foam
   Am                    Em
He bids her come out and come home
    C                  G  N.C. Am
The deeper and colder she goes

[Chorus]

    Am                  Em
The silt of our wedding bed
    Am                         Em
The pebbles where you lay your head
C         G   N.C.        Am      Em
Love come in, the water is fine

[Verse 2]
     Am
When shе is pulled beneath thе rush
     Em
(Ah, ah, ah)
   Am                         Em
He waits and waits, his face aflush
(Oh, oh)
         C                G    N.C
'Til the pale imitation drifts up
 Am

[Chorus]

    Am                  Em
The silt of our wedding bed
    Am                         Em
The pebbles where you lay your head
C         G
Love come in
    Am                Em
The minnows our witnesses
    Am                    Em
The cause of our sickness is
C         G               Am
Love come in, the water is fine

[Bridge]

C
Blood runs thicker than water
G
Blood runs thicker than water
Am
Blood runs thicker than water
    Em
But both feel the same when your
Eyes are closed

C
I am the river's daughter
G
I am the river's daughter
Am
I am the river's daughter
    Em
And you'll be her son when we're
Both reposed

C
Blood runs thicker than water
G
Blood runs thicker than water
Am
Blood runs thicker than water
    Em
But both feel the same when your
Eyes are closed

C
I am the river's daughter
G
I am the river's daughter
Am
I am the river's daughter
    Em
And you'll be her son when we're
Both reposed

[Chorus and Bridge Harmonised]

Am
Blood runs thicker than water
(The silt of our wedding bed)
Em
Blood runs thicker than water
Am
Blood runs thicker than water
(The pebbles where you lay your
Head)
    Em
But both feel the same when your
Eyes are closed

C
I am the river's daughter
(Love, come in)
G
I am the river's daughter
C
I am the river's daughter
(Love, come in)
    G                 N.C
And you'll be her son when the water
    Am
 Is fine

   (Am)               Em
The minnows our witnesses
    Am                    Em
The cause of our sickness is
C         G   C         G
Love come in, love come in
C         G   N.C.         Am
Love come in, the water is fine

[Final] (Am)  Em Am  Em  Am

Love come in, love come in

Love come in, the water is fine
