[Primeira Parte]

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

[Refrão]

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             D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

[Solo] D  C  G  D   

          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 she gone
Am7
Once there was a river now there's a stone
D
You know it's evil when you're living alone
