Verse 1:
EmMargaret arrayed the rocks around the hull before it was sGinking
EmA million stones, a million bones, a million holes within the cGhinking
AmAnd painting rings around your Ceyes these peppered holes
So filled with crGying
AmA whisper weighed upon the tCattered down where you and I were lGying
Verse 2:
EmTell me now, tell me this, A forest's son, a river's dGaughter
EmA willow on the willow wisp, our ghosts will wander all of the wGater
AmSo let's be married here tCoday these rushing waves to bare our wGitness
AmAnd we will lie like river sCtones rolling only where it taGkes us Em D
Chorus:
But CI pulled you and AmI called you Ghere (DiEmdn’t I, didn??D?t I, didn’t I?)
And AmI caught you and CI brought you Ghere (DEmidn’t I)

Verse 3:
EmOh Margaret the lapping waves are licking quietly at our anklesG
EmAnother bow another breath this brilliant chills come for the shackleG
AmWith this long last rush of aCir we speak our vows and sorry whispersG
