Intro: G D Em C
*Can substitute D for D7 if you like throughout the song.
VERSE 1:
G D
Hello, We haven't talked in quite some time
Em C
I know, I haven't been the best... of sons
G D
Hello I've been traveling the deserts of my mind
Em C G
And I, haven't found a drop... of life
D Em C
I haven't found a drop... of you
G D
I haven't found a drop
Em C G
I haven't found a drop... of water
G D Em C
Water
VERSE 2:
G
I try desperately to run through the sand as I
D
Hold the water In the palm of my hand
Em
'Cause It's all that I have and it's all that I need and
C
The waves of the water mean nothing to me and I
G
I try my best, with all that I can to
D
Hold tightly onto what's left in my hand
Em
But no matter how, how tightly I will strain
C
The sand will slow me down, and the water will drain
G
I'm just being dramatic in fact, I'm only at it again
D
As an Addict With A Pen who's addicted to the wind
Em
As it blows me back and forth, mindless, spineless I pretend
C
Of course I'll be here again, see you tomorrow but it's the end of today
G
And of my ways as a walking denial
D
My trial was filed as a crazy suicidal head case
Em
But you specialize in dying, you hear me screaming father
C
And I'm lying here just crying, so wash me with your water
