(intro)
E E/D
Watership Down, gather around
C#m7
There's a story to be told
A#m7-5
It's for the young and for the old
E
You might hear them in the distance
B
If your ear's to the ground
E E/D
Whisper it loud, carry the sound
C#m7
Of the footsteps alone
A#m7-5
When they're heading for home
E
Through the raining of the dangers
B
And the grayness of the dawn
Bm7 E9 Amaj7
I can feel there's better days
Dmaj7
Well, they're comin', they're comin'
Bm7 E9 F#m
I can see them through the haze
F#m/E D#m7-5
So can you
A E/G# F#m7 E A C G Bsus4
E E/D
Watership Down, gather around
C#m7
There's a story to be told
A#m7-5
It's for the young and for the old
E
You might hear them in the distance
B
If your ear's to the ground
Bm7 E9 Amaj7
I can feel there's better days
Dmaj7
Well, they're comin', they're comin'
Bm7 E9 F#m
I can see them through the haze
F#m/E D#m7-5
So can you
A E/G# F#m7 E A C G Bsus4
A E/G# F#m7 E A C G Bsus4
Oo, oo, oo
E E/D

It's for the young and for the old
E
You might hear them in the distance
B
If your ear's to the ground

Oo, oo,
