Em G D C
See this ancient riverbed, See where all the follies led
Em D Em
Down by the water, (and) down by the old main drag
Em G D C
I was just some towhead teen, Feelin' 'round for fingers to get in-between
Em D Em
Down by the water, down by the old main drag
Em D Em Em D C (pause)
The season rubs me wrong, The summer swells a-non
Em G D C
So knock me down, tear me up, But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Em D Em
Down by the water and down by the old main drag
Harp Break (Repeat Intro)
C | Em | C | Em D |
Em G D C
(Sweet to send this reveler 'round), the pretty little patter of a seaport town
Em D Em
Rolling in the water and rolling down the old main drag

All dolled up in gabardine, The last flashing (lead) to appear nineteen
Em D Em
Queen of the water and queen of the old main drag
