Biography:
Dry the River were a folk rock band from Stratford, London, UK, formed in spring 2009. Frontman Peter Liddle decribes their sound as "folky gospel music played by a post-punk band". Currently, the band consists of Peter Liddle (vocals, guitar), Matthew Taylor (guitar, keys, vocals), Scott Miller (bass, percussion, vocals) and Jon Warren (drums, percussion). The original lineup also included Will Harvey (violin, viola, keys, mandolin); however, he left the band in early 2014.

[Verse 1]
D G
Lo and behold your mother is drinking again.
D G
This might be the coldest winter since records began.
D G
You were a lone moon steady with wintry cold,
D G
Leading the children softly across the fold.
[verse 2 - same]
Each morning you'd march your sisters like soldiers to school,
Cause lo and behold your father had drunk all the fuel.
You are a lone moon steady with wintry cold,
Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark.
[Bridge]
Em D
But you swear blind, there is no weight in the water pail.
Em D
You say, "My love, you take the cards that you're dealt."
Em D
Cause there's no guiding light arching a line to Bethlehem.
Em D
If it's dark outside you light the fire yourself.
[Chorus]
Em
Darlin' when the ice caps melt,
G
When the devil's in the bible belt,
D
Don't cower in your bed.
Em
I'll be on the 5-4-5,
G
You can meet me at the railway line,
D
Don't look so scared.
Bm D
Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk.
Em D
The trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore.
Em D
Oh the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore.
D G
Lo and behold your mother is drinking again.
D G
This might be the coldest winter since records began.
D G
You were a lone moon steady with wintry cold,
D G
Leading the children softly across the fold.
[verse 2 - same]

Cause lo and behold your father had drunk all the fuel.
You are a lone moon steady with wintry cold,
