Verse:
Em
They say it's a waste
Bm
A waste of water
A E
Don't let it run through the cracks
Em
But you roll it like a wave
Bm
A wall of water
A Em
Slides right off your back
Pre-chorus:
C#m G*
By the way
Bm
You'll be happy just to learn
E E C C C#m
I've given up on you
G*
By the way
Bm
You'll be happy just to learn
Em Em C C E
I've given up on you e --0--0--2--4h5p4-- these "extra" parts are
Em Em C C E difficult to include with
Given up on you e --0--0--2--0h2p0-- only one guitar
Chorus:
G C(9) Dsus4
Down to the river

The river I run

Point my face to the water

My feet to the sun

Verse:
They say you have your ways
Your ways about you
Beautiful lips tell lies
I'm going through a phase
Like a moon without you
Howling to cold black skies

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official DADA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
