| D | C | G | D |
[Verse]
D
High and dry in the long hot day,
D
lost and lonely in every way
Am
Got the flats all around me, sky up above,
D
yes, I need a little water of love
D
I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain,
D
crying out for some soothing rain
Am
I believe I've taken enough,
D
yes I need a little water of love
[Chorus]
Am
Water of love deep in the ground,
G D
but there ain’t no water here to be found
Am
Some day baby when the river runs free,
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
[Solo]
| D | C | G | Am C |
[Verse]
D
There's a bird up in a tree,
D
sitting up high, just a-waitin' for me to die
Am
If I don't get some water soon,
D
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
[Chorus]
Am
Water of love deep in the ground,
G D
but there ain’t no water here to be found
Am
Some day baby when the river runs free,
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
[Solo]
| D | C | G | Am C |
[Verse]
D
Once I had a woman I could call my own,
D
Once I had a woman, now my woman she gone
Am
Once there was a river, now there's a stone
D
You know it's evil when you're living alone
[Chorus]
Am
Water of love deep in the ground,
G D
but there ain’t no water here to be found
Am
Some day baby when the river runs free,
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Am
Carry that water of love deep in the ground,
G D
but there ain’t no water here to be found
Am
Some day baby when the river runs free,
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
[Outro]
