Biography:
Levellers is a popular English rock band influenced by punk and traditional English music. The band is based in Brighton, England, where they were founded in 1988. There are several stories regarding how they got their name; from the Levellers, a radically democratic faction of Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army; as a reference to "The Level", a flat open space near where members of the band used to live in Brighton; or simply, according to guitarist, Simon Friend, a word they chose from a dictionary.

Am
She's the maid of the river
C
So beautifully plain
G
As fresh as the country
Am
That gave her her name
Am
As crisp as the snow
C
And as swift as the rain
G
She shone like the sun
Am
Before all of our games
Am
She shone like a jewel
C
But her price was not gold
G
She cried more than most
Am
When her story was told
Am
But her people were evil
C
Left her baron and cold
G
And her heart went to market
Am
Where her body was sold
Chorus
Am Am/C C
I said hey hey won't you take me away
G
Because I can't see the point
Am
In the dawn of the day
Am C
When so many killers gonna take you away
G Am
And leave little left except hatred
E
She's the goddess of love
Am
The goddess in green
E
The goddess of all
Am
That I've ever seen
E
Goddess of hope
Am
The goddess in brown
E
The goddess of all
That you've burned to the ground
Chorus
(repeat chord sequence throughout )
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
Chorus
She's the maid of the river
C
So beautifully plain
G
As fresh as the country
Am
That gave her her name
Am
As crisp as the snow
C
And as swift as the rain
G
She shone like the sun
Am
Before all of our games
Am
She shone like a jewel
C
But her price was not gold
G
She cried more than most
Am
When her story was told
Am
But her people were evil

G
And her heart went to market
