Florence And The Machine- What The Water Gave Me    / all the best.


Cm        Gm  
Time it took us
 Bb                  F
 To where the water was
 Cm                     Gm 
 That’s what the water gave me
 Cm                Gm
 And time goes quicker
   Bb           F
 Between the two of us
 Cm                  Gm 
 Oh, my love, don’t forsake me
 Bb                   F
 Take what the water gave me
 

         Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb     F
 Let the only sound
         Cm    Gm
 Be the overflow
          Bb      F
 Pockets full of stones
         
        
       Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb      F
 Let the only sound
         Cm Gm Bb    F
 Be the overflow
 

Cm       Gm    Bb    F
And oh poor Atlas
               Cm    Gm     Bb   F
 The world’s a beast of a burden
                Cm    Gm    Bb     F
 You’ve been holding on a long time
      Cm   Gm  Bb    F
 And all this longing
           Cm     Gm     Bb      F
 And the shields are left to rust
  Cm             Gm     Bb    F
 That’s what the water gave us

 
     Cm  Gm
So Lay me down
          Bb     F
 Let the only sound
         Cm    Gm
 Be the overflow
          Bb      F
 Pockets full of stones
 
     Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb      F
 Let the only sound
         Cm Gm Bb    F
 Be the overflow

                        Cm
‘Cause they took your loved ones
       Gm                     F 
 But returned them in exchange for you
                              Cm   Gm
 But would you have it any other way?
           F 
Would you have it any other way?
                              Cm   Gm
 You could have had it any other way
                     Cm   Gm
 ‘Cause she’s a crueller mistress
         F
 And the bargain must be made
       Cm                  Gm
 But oh, my love, don’t forget me
       F
 But I let the water take me
 

       Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb     F
 Let the only sound
         Cm    Gm
 Be the overflow
          Bb      F
 Pockets full of stones
 
     Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb      F
 Let the only sound
         Cm Gm Bb    F
 Be the overflow


 
       Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb     F
 Let the only sound
         Cm    Gm
 Be the overflow
          Bb      F
 Pockets full of stones


     Cm  Gm
Lay me down
          Bb      F
 Let the only sound
         Cm Gm Bb    F
 Be the overflow
