------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE LOWERING: A SAD DAY IN GREENVILLETOWN - The Avett Brothers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Macheeoo E-mail: Tuning: Standard CAPO II If I had known your heart was down That lonely day in Greenvilletown Then I would have been more concerned But later on I truly learned How it can feel in every bone To really see that you’re all alone But I’ll I’ll kiss your head When death finds your bed And you are gone And if I had seen the way it would be I’d hush your cries when you came to me If I could do what I did to you The same to me and I would love for you to see That I sleep with remorse And regret hangs round my door Forevermore And if I had known the lowering tide Was lowering with the way you felt inside If I had known all hope was gone A broken heart and a broken home That pierced my lover’s past And carved a lonely path for her to walk So if ever someone says to you "Life isn’t fair get used to it" Then you should say -- "Well it might be If folks like you would let it be" But I’ll I’ll kiss your head When death becomes my bed And I am gone.

La chanson évoque la douleur de la solitude et le regret de ne pas avoir compris la souffrance d'une personne chère, laissée dans une situation désespérée. Le narrateur exprime des remords et un profond chagrin, réalisant trop tard l'ampleur de la détresse de l'autre. Les paroles mettent en lumière une connexion brisée et une promesse d'amour éternel, même face à la mort. Le contexte semble se dérouler dans un milieu rural, où la vie quotidienne peut être particulièrement difficile et marquée par l'isolement. La mention de Greenvilletown ajoute une dimension de mélancolie, soulignant que chaque petite communauté peut être le théâtre de grandes peines, souvent invisibles aux yeux des autres. On y parle également des injustices de la vie, suggérant que la compréhension et l'ouverture des cœurs sont essentielles pour surmonter les épreuves.
