Tom : D
D6
[Verse 1]
D A
All day I face the barren waste
D A A7 D Dsus4 D
Without the taste of water, cool water
G A A7
Old Dan and I With throats burned dry
D Dsus2 G D Dsus2 D
And souls that cry for water
[Chorus]
A A7 D Dsus2 D
Cool clear water
[Refrain]
D A
Keep a movin' Dan, don't you listen to him Dan
D A A7 D Dsus4 D
He's a devil not a man, and he spreads the burning sand with water
[Bridge]
G D
Dan don't you see that big green tree
G
Where the water's runnin' free
A A7 D Dsus2 D
And it's waiting there for me and you
[Verse 2]
D A
Shadows sway, they seem to say
D A A7 D Dsus4 D
Tonight we'll pray for water, cool water
G A A7
Way up there he'll hear our prayer
D Dsus2 G D Dsus2 D
And show us where there's water
[Chorus]
[Outro]
D A
All day I face the barren waste
D A
Without the taste of water
A A7 D Dsus2 D
Cool clear water
A A7 D Dsus2 D
Cool clear water
