Dm                 Em
Today there was a tragedy
F               A#
Underneath the bridge
Dm
A man walked
          Em
Cold and blue
         F   A#
Into La Ment
     Dm           Em
The sky coloured perfect
        F            A#
As the man slipped away

Gm            F/A           A#
Waving with a last vanilla smile
Gm            F/A           A#
Waving with a last vanilla smile

Somewhere at a table
Two drowned fools
Smoking
Drinking water as they talked
Of how they loved our lady
And oh the smell as candles die

Gm       F/A              A#
One more ice cream river body
Gm     F/A              A#
Flowed underneath the bridge
                 Dm
Underneath the bridge
