Standard (EADGBE)

Father tired to save me

 he said believe in the spirit of god

leave me alone

My mother tried to heal me

 She said just feel me, just feel me

now leave me alone

My brother tried to scold me

 He tried to hold, to hold me

Now leave me alone

My sister tried to listen

 But she couldn't understand

It's not how i stand, but where i stand

And you talk

And you talk

And you talk

 And then you walk

And you get what you wanted all along

 And then you walk

(Chorus)

 And then you walk oil in the water

How come you can't be with me?

Oil in the fire

I remember how it used to be

Swan in the water,

you're moving so elegantly

And it burns

And it burns

And it burns

And it burns

And it burns

He tired to convinve me

 It was shouting on the radio and tv screen

Leave me alone

My angels tried to mess me

 Constantly testing and testing me

Now leave me alone

The devil tried to bless me,

 Confessing the debt

Leave me alone

My sister tried to listen

 But she couldn't understand

It's not how i stand, but where i stand

And you talk

And you talk

And you talk

 And then you walk

And you get what you wanted all along

 And then you walk

(Chorus)

 And then you walk oil in the water

How come you can't be with me?

Oil in the fire

I remember how it used to be

Swan in the water,

you're moving so elegantly

And it burns

And it burns

And it burns

And it burns

And it burns
