Song: Whiskey & Water

Intro: Em - D - C (x3) - G

G     D     C
  Please send me a sign
      G        B
And set me up against the rain
       Em    D   C
And give me something I can trust
      D
In all the drama of change

G   D     C
  I followed a dream
     G       B
And if a man is born to fall
       Em   D    C
Then let me live against my creed
       D
In all the filth of it all

C    G
And I can drink my whiskey and water
     B    Em
And fix folly in peace
        C
Cos there's a price you pay
  G              D
To live this way, its called a release



G     D    C
  Please drop me a line
       G       B
And send me love and sun to boot
     Em  D    C
Cos I am idle drunk and well
     D
Busy with nothing to do

G    D    C
  This body is cold
      G       B
I have to make the grade alone
      Em    D   C
Cos I have traveled far to find
     D
I need a room of my own



C
Where I can
    G
Break kindly with Fortune
   B         Em
Cos she's something to be
        C        G
She's spending Saturdays in the Baltic
     D
With the SSP

C     G
And I am charged guilty as sin
     B       Em
Because it hurts me to know
       C
That she is working so hard
  G        D
But for the joy of stock control



Instrumental verse:
G - D - C - G - B
Em - D - C - D - C - G



G   D    C
But let me sing out to myself
      G         B
And polish off these bottled cries
       Em    D    C
And send them down to Saville Row
       D
Cos I'm not ready to die

G     D    C
But I, I'm ready to live
    G        B
Can I make it out with pride
     Em    D     C
Play the left wing let down king
        D
Put out there something to hide



C     G
And I can run to you for cover and
 B       Em
We'll bury the dread
       C         G
And when the time has come for leaving
    D
I will love you instead

C     G
Oh won't you sing something in minor key
 B         Em
This stillness is bleak
       C       G
Oh could we dream away the guilt
         D
We have for the working week

C        G
oh and in the warm arms of a stranger I'm
 B      Em
Too happy to lie
       C       G
I know we've both been here before
         D
Just please don't ask me why

C
And I have
    G
Walked here with you close to me
 B     Em
But never alone
        C         G
But won't you cling to me in the major key
      D
All the joy I've known
      C
All the joy I've known
     G    C
Oh the joy I've known (x4)
  G    C
Lalalala-lalala (x3)
    G
Lalala la
