I wonder if my rope's still hanging from the tree 
By the standing pool where you drank me 
D5             A5            B5
And filled me full of thirsty love 
B5          A5       G5
And the memory of water

  B5          A5          G5
I wonder if a king still fishes there 
B5         A5                    G5
His back towards the burned-out air 
D5            A5            B5
His laughing catches singing loud 
G5          A5       B5
Of the memory of water 

     D5                  A5
Your taste is blood and ecstasy 
    B5               A5
But I must drink you all alone 
G5                      F#5
You're freckled like a speckled egg 
E5                B5              A5     E5    G5
A dove, but this bird has flown 

  D5                  A5     B5     A5
O stay with me sweet memory 
G5 F#5       E5     G5
O stay with me 

  B5           A5                    B5
I wonder if my rope's still hanging from the tree 
B5              A5                    B5
By the standing pool where you drank me 
D5             A5            B5
As pain flows through me like champagne 
G5          A5     B5
Of the memory of water
