Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

Oh people, look around you the signs are everywhere

 You've left it for somebody other than you to be the one to care

 You're lost inside your houses there's no time to find you now

 While your walls are burning and your towers are turning

 I'm going to leave you here and try to get down to the sea somehow

Verse

 The road is filled with homeless souls every woman, child and man

 Who have no idea where they will go but they'll help you if they can

 Now everyone must have some thought that's going to pull them through somehow

 While the fires are raging hotter and hotter

 But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

Chorus

Rock me on the water

  Sister will you soothe my fevered brow

Rock me on the water

 I'll get down to the sea somehow

 (I'll get down to the sea somehow)

Interlude

Verse

Oh people, look among you it's there your hope must lie

There's a sea bird above you gliding in one place like Jesus in the sky

We all must do the best we can and then hang on to that gospel plow

When my life is over, and I stand before the father

But the sisters of the sun are going to rock me on the water now

Chorus

Rock me on the water

Sister will you soothe my fevered brow

Rock me on the water

Maybe I'll remember

Maybe I'll remember now

Rock me on the water

The wind is with me now

 So rock me on the water

I'll get down to the sea somehow

I'll get down to the sea somehow

Rock me on the water

Rock me now

Rock me on the water

Rock me now
