[Intro]
        Bm           A  Em G
Take a swim in the water
        Bm           A  Em G
Take a swim in the water
                      Bm A Em G

[Verse 1]
Bm      A                 Em           G             Bm A Em G
You with the dark curls, you with the watercolored eyes
Bm        A              Em       G    Bm A Em G
You who bears all your teeth in every smile
        Bm          A        Em     G             Bm  A  Em G
Says I can always hear you sing, I wanna hear you speak to me
        Bm          A       Em       G        Bm A Em G
While a stranger braids my hair back out on the street
     Bm     A        Em       G         Bm A Em G
And in your dreams we are shooting at snakes
     Bm        A         Em      G        Bm A Em G
And while you were asleep, I was surely awake
 
[Pre-Chorus]
         Bm    A    Em    G
I was talking out a cigarette
         Bm      A   Em   G
There's nothing left to say
     Bm         A         Em    G
But he should have been there anyway
        Bm      A       Em       G    Bm A Em G
For I didn't sing a single song, all day
 
[Chorus]
        Bm A Em G
As my love for you dies
        Bm A Em G
As my love for you dies
        Bm A Em G
As my love for you is steadily dying
     Bm     A      Em      G      Bm A Em G
As sharp and serious as a pistol in the eye

[Verse 2]
G            Em
My heart is full of swords
Am         C          G G
Full of, full of swords
G              Em            Am C G G
Your love, it knows the Lord
G                    Em
Tie my hands and I'm on my knees
       Am             C              G G
As I kneel down, I kneel down in the sea
G              Em
To the ocean floor, I will sink
Am                  C             G G
Like a steel chest full of weapons
G                        Em
And all in spite of the tide, you will rise
        Am            C           G G
Like a red, ripe, red, ripe apple
G                    Em
Take a swim in the dirty water
Am      C           G G
Dear Arkansas Daughter
G                   Em
Take a swim in the dirty water

Darling, child, true love of mine

[Chorus]
       Bm   A   Em   G
As my love for you dies
       Bm   A   Em   G
As my love for you dies
       Bm   A           Em       G
As my love for you is steadily dying
Bm          A       Em        G
Darling, child, true love of mine
Bm          A    Em    G         Bm A Em
Darling, child, true love of mine
