Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “Down by the River” dari Pulp:
Bm2 Em Bm
Take me down to the river
Bm2 F# Bm
Where I would not go before
Bm2 Em
Through the trees and the rushes
F# Bm
To a place we both know
And I'm feeling much younger
As I kneel on the ground
Dip my toe in the water
Of the river where I watched you drown
Na da da, na na na na, na na na
Em Bm
Oh, when the river ran dry that next year
Em Bm
I could not find your body
Em Bm
Now I'm standing here ready at last
F# Bm
To dive down and reach you again
Bm2 Em Bm
And I long to be with you
Bm2 F# Bm
Now these cold nights have come
Bm2 Em
Oh I go down to the river
C# C Bm
But the river will stop for no-one
C# C Bm
Though I ask it, it keeps flowing on
C# C Bm
When I ask it, it tells me you're gone.
