Water Tower

G Moving lights on an overhead map C Have to be headed somewhere G There's probably gonna be a building burning in town D When you smell smoke in the air C Small hopes are seen to still be small ones EM G When the hour grows late G D G And a body floating in a water tower is bound to take on weight G Somebody comes bearing the standard C Just when you need to see it held high G You never miss your water until you're parched D Riding home from the slaughter C EM G Oracles are seen emerging from the northern mists D G And a body floating in a water tower is bound at the ankles and wrists C Bound at the ankles and wrists C G Marks in the skin C From where the ropes have been D Digging right in G Men of legend built the cities of the prairie C To rise from the horizon at night G Feel something bigger than me D When I see them trapped in the headlight C Head east, head north by northeast EM G Get my bearing and know D G That a body floating in a water tower only has one way to go G c G Float downstream, let me float downstream
