COOL WATER |
|
Lyrics 4/4 |
|
Key: [C] Hank |
|
Williams version. |
|
All [C] day |
|
I've faced the [G7] bar - ren waste |
|
With [C] out the taste of [G7] wa-ter..... cool, [C] wa-ter. |
|
Ole [F] Dan and |
|
I, with [G7] throats burned dry ,and [C] souls that [F] cryfor [C] wa-ter.... [G7] cool, clear [C] wa-ter. |
|
The [C] nights are cool and [G7] |
|
I'm a fool. |
|
Each [C] star's a pool of [G7] wa-ter.... cool, clear [C] wa-ter. |
|
And [F] with the dawn |
|
I'll [G7] wake and yawnand [C] car-ry [F] onto [C] wa-ter.... [G7] cool, clear [C] wa-ter. |
|
The [C] sha - dows sway and [G7] seem to say |
|
To- [C] night we pray for [G7] wa-ter.... cool, clear [C] wa-ter |
|
And [F] way up there |
|
He'll [G7] hear our prayerand [C] show us [F] wherethere's [C] wa-ter.... [G7] cool, clear [C]wa-ter.[C] |
|
Keep a-movin' |
|
Dan. Don't you [G7] listen to him |
|
Dan.He's the [C] devil, not a man. |
|
He [G7] spreads the burnin' sand with [C] wa-ter. |
|
Say [F] Dan can't you see that [G7] big green tree,where the [F] water's runnin' free. |
|
It's [G7] waiting there for you and [C] meand [G7] wa-ter.... cool, clear [C] wa-ter. |
|
Dan's [C] feet are sore he's [G7] yearnin' for |
|
Just [C] one thing more than [G7] wa-ter.... cool, clear [C] wa-ter. |
|
Like [F] me |
|
I guess he'd [G7] like to restwhere [C] there's no [F] questfor [C] wa-ter.... [G7] cool, clear [C] wa-ter. |
