Riff 1
*Riff 1 is played through out verse.
Verse: 0:17- 0:32
"Don't go there" I heard her say.
"You can't stomach what you're going to see"
It's down there, by the water's edge
wasted and bloated and waiting for someone else

Verse: 0:41- 0:56
Funny how, these things come about
when you're tied to the teeth and mouth
No sound or fury, no shot of pain
there was no real reason, no gain
CHORUS: 0:57- 1:12
I can't go down to the water's edge
I didn't do it.....I saw who did
Don't go down to the water's edge
they did it once and they can do it again
Riff 1- Play 1 Time: 1:13- 1:21
Verse: 1:22- 1:36
Riff 1 throughout
It ain't no secret to me
how she got there down by the stream
I'd seen her a minute before
the van pulled up and opened the door
Fill 1: 1:37- 1:45

(took all my love)
Verse: 1:46- 2:01
I can't say a single word
about what I saw of her
her killers....they got their friends
in familiar places, I tell you man
CHORUS: 1:22- 2:17
I can't go down to the water's edge
I didn't do it.....I saw who did
Don't go down to the water's edge
they did it once and they can do it again
Riff 1- play 1 time: 2:18- 2:26
Verse: 2:27- 2:41
Riff 1 throughout
this ain't no fucking game
and I'm feeling so ashamed
because I didn't do anything
no I didn't do anything
2:42- 3:06
to stop, to stop, to stop, to stop,
this, from, happening
I, didn't do anything! *STOP*
3:07- end
Don't go down to the water's edge you said to me
I didn't do it, but I saw who did you see
Don't go down to the water's edge
They did it once, they can do it again
I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear, I didn't
do, anything, I should've
