Verse:
D
My friend, my friend, you are traveling
D
So many secrets are unraveling
A                           G
Some other picture's coming into view
D
I seen the water washing over you
D
and the water's speaking now, it speaks your name
D

I hear it talking to me sometimes when it rains
A                     G
Telling me a story of joy or pain
             D
But I've got no regrets baby, I've got no shame

Chorus:
              G
'Cause we are water
            D
We flow and flow
           G
I feel you pouring through
           D
Every inch of my soul and
              A
I really must tell you this
             Bm
Baby, before you go
       G
We are water
            D
We flow and flow

D
I am a river baby, I've got plenty of time
D
I don't know where I'm going I'm just following the lines
A                                  G
There's just no telling where this river will flow
         D
I got no choice in the matter, baby,
D
I just go where it goes
D
I'm making my bed tonight right under this cloud
D
Sometimes the lightening's so frightening
D
Sometimes the thunder's so loud
A                                 G
Still, I know this tide is always kissing my heels
D
Someimes I think I'm drowning in all these things that I feel

Chorus:
D
Out on the beach today, I did not find
D
One single footstep that we left behind
A                         G
So I went swimming in the deep blue sea
            D
and I could feel that water all around me

Chorus:
        A
?We are water
            Bm
We flow and flow
G           D
We flow and flow
