Version 1[Intro] B7 E [Verse 1] E B7 All day I've faced a barren waste E B7 E Without the taste of water, cool water A B7 Old Dan and I with throats burned dry E A E And souls that cry for water B7 E Cool, clear, water [Verse 2] E B7 The nights are cool and I'm a fool E B7 Each star's a pool of water B7 E Cool water A B7 And with the dawn I'll wake and yawn E A E And carry on to water B7 E Cool, clear, water [Verse 3] E B7 Keep a-movin, Dan, don’tcha listen to him, Dan E He's a devil, not a man B7 E And he spreads the burning sand with water A E Dan, can ya see that big, green tree? A Where the water's runnin' free B7 E A And it's waitin' there for you and me? E Water B7 E Cool, clear, water [Verse 4] E B7 The shadows sway and seem to say E B7 Tonight we pray for water B7 E Cool water A B7 And way up there He'll hear our prayer E A E And show us where there's water B7 E Cool, clear water [Verse 5] E B7 Keep a-movin, Dan, don’tcha listen to him, Dan E He's a devil, not a man B7 E And he spreads the burning sand with water A E Dan, can ya see that big, green tree?
