(Paul Simon)

(Don't trouble the water)
|
I won't (give it up)
|
(Why don't you, why don't you, let it be?)
|
Um hum hum
|
(Still water run deep... yes it do)
|
I know that
|
(Whoa-o-o-yeah)
|
Yeah if you only believe
|
|
[Instrumental]
|
|
(Don't trouble the water)
|
Said I wouldn't (give it up)
|
(Why don't you, why don't you, let it be?)
|
Umm (still water run deep)
|
Yes it do
|
(Yes it do whoa-oh-ho yeah, and if you're only in need)
|
|
When you're down now
|
When you on the street
|
When evenin' falls
|
Somehow I will comfort you
|
|
I'll take the bow
|
Whoa when darkness comes
|
And there's no one you love around
|
|
Just like a bridge over troubled water
|
I will lay me down
|
(Like a bridge)
|
Just like a bridge
|
(Over troubled) over troubled water
|
I will lay me down
|
|
Sail on silver moon
|
Sail on by
|
Your time has come
|
To shine all of your dreams
|
Are on their way
|
(See how they shine?)
|
|
Ooooh if you ever need a friend
|
(Need a friend)
|
Look around and sailing by
|
Just like a bridge
|
(Bridge (over) over (troubled) water
|
I'll be there to lay me down
|
(Like a bridge)
|
Like a bridge over (troubled water) troubled water
|
I will lay me down
|
Ooooh I'll be your bridge
|
Yes I will
|
|
(Don't trouble the water)
|
Said I wouldn't
|
(Give it up)
|

|

Still the water (don't trouble the water)
|

Talkin' bout still water
|

|
You know they run deep

|

|
Come on come on
|
Walk out on me
|
(Still water run deep)
|
Oh
