MAID OF THE RIVER / ZEITGEIST

Bm

She's the maid of the river

D

So beautiful plain

A

As fresh as the country

Bm

That gave her her name

As crips as the snow

D

And as swift as the rain

A

She shone like the sun

Bm

Before all of our games

She shone like a jewel

D

But her price was not gold

A

She cired more than most

Bm

When her story was told

But her people were evil

D

Left her baron and cold

A

And her heart went to market

Bm

Where her body was sold

Bm D

I said : 'Hey, hey won't you take me away

A

Cos I can't see the point

Bm

In the dawn of the day

D

So many killers gonna take you away

A Bm

They'll leave nothing left except hatred'

F#

She's the goddess of love

Bm

The goddess in green

F#

The goddess of all

Bm

That I've ever seen

F#

The goddess of hope

Bm

The goddess in brown

F#

The goddess of all

That you've burned to the ground

There's all kind of hatred

Flows out of man's hands

There's the hatred that strangles

The throat of a man

But the worst of all hatred

Is that which is planned

Against what we have

In this goddess of land
