Tom: D Intro: 2 x D C G D D High and dry in the long hot day Lost and lonely in every way Am7 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, Crying out for some soothing rain Am7 I believe I've taken enough, D I need a little water of love Chorus: Am7 Water of love deep in the ground, G D but there aint no water here to be found Am7 Some day baby when the river runs free, G (stop) D It's gonna carry that water of love to me Solo like Intro: D C G D 1 time D There's a bird up in a tree, sitting up high, Just a-waitin' for me to die Am7 If I don't get some water soon, D I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon Chorus + solo like Intro: D C G D 1 time D Once I had a woman I could call my own, Once I had a woman now my woman is gone Am7 Once there was a river now there's a stone D You know it's evil when you're living alone Chorus + Outro: D C G D 1 time
