Dm                 Em
Today there was a tragedy
F              Gm
Underneath the bridge
Dm
A man walked
          Em
Cold and blue
         F   Gm
Into La Ment
     Dm            Em
The sky coloured perfect
        F           Gm
As the man slipped away
Gm               Em          Bb
Waving with a last vanilla smile
Dm              Em
Somewhere at a table
F                 Gm
Two drowned fools
Dm
Smoking
          Em            F       Gm
Drinking water as they talked
Dm                     Em
Of how they loved our lady
    F                Gm
And oh the smell as candles die
Gm        Em               Bb
One more ice cream river body
Gm        Em              Bb
Flowed underneath the bridge
Gm                 Dm
Underneath the bridge
