down among the reeds and rushes
G C/G G C | G
C/G G C |
a baby boy was found
A# | F C |
his eyes as clear as centuries
F Gm | F C |
his silky hair was brown
F C |
never been lonely
A# F/C |
never been lied to
C A# |
never had to scuffle in fear
F |
nothing denied to
| C |
born at the instant
A# F/C |
the church bells chime
C A# |
and the whole world whispering
F | Gm | F C | F Gm |
F C |
born at the right time
F Gm
me and my buddies we are travelling people

all the way from washington to tokyo

upon their mother’s breast

their uninvited guest

too many people on the bus from the airport
F C | G C/G G
C | G C/G G C |
too many holes in the crust of the earth
A# |
the planet groans
F/C C | F Gm | F |
every time it registers another birth
| F Gm | F C |
but down among the reeds and rushes
