 A5  Ab5  F#5  D5 

The pattern is simple

A5
Moving down the water
Ab5
John is drifting out of sight
F#5
It's only at the turning point
D5
That you find out how you fight

A5
In the cold, feel the cold
Ab5
All around...
F#5
And the rush of crashing water
D5
Surrounds me with its sound

It's the same chord progression through the whole short song. The vocals and the band 
in intensity as the track goes on, but the chords remain the same.

Here are the chords tabbed out.

Keep in mind, I fingerpick EVERYTHING I play, so my chords are the simplest ones 
and may be different from the ones most flat pickers use. If you flat pick, mute the x'd 
on each chord while strumming or play your barre chords.

One of the best tracks on the album in my opinion. I play a version of it regularly 
straight into "it.", a song which I will be posting the chords for soon.

Let the record show that as of this date (Oct. 17, 2010), I have NEVER found a tab/chord 
this song online or in print in my years of searching! Now one is available for 
to learn and share.
