[Intro] G G   F F Em Em C C


[Verse 1]

G G F F
Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time
Em Em C C G G
I know I haven't been the best of sons
(G G) F F
Hello, I've been traveling in the desert of my mind
Em Em C C
And I haven't found a drop...
G G F F
Of life.
F F Em Em C C
I haven't found a drop...Of you
(C C) G G F F
I haven't found a drop...
Em Em C C
I haven't found a drop...
G G F F Em Em C C
Of water
(C C) G G F F Em Em C C
Waaaaaater Ooohh
G G F F Em Em C C
ahh...


[Verse 2]

G G
I tried desperately to run through the sand
F F
As I hold the water in the palm of my hand
Em Em
'Cause it's all that I have, and it's all that I need
C C
And the waves of the water mean nothing to me
G G
But I tried my best and all that I can
F F
To hold tightly onto what's left in my hand
Em Em
But no matter how, how tightly I will strain
C C
The sand will slow me down, and the water will drain


[Verse 3]

G G
I'm just being dramatic, in fact
F F
I'm only at it again

As an addict with a pen

Who's addicted to the wind
Em Em
As it blows me back and forth

Mindless, spineless, and pretend
C C
Of course, I'll be here again

See you tomorrow
G G
But it's the end of today

End of my ways

As a walking denial
F F
My trial was filed

As a crazy suicidal headcase
Em Em
But you specialize in dying
C C
You hear me screaming, "Father!"

And I'm lying here just crying
G G F F Em Em C C
So wash me with your water


[Verse 4]

Waaaaaaater
G G F F
Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time
Em Em C C G G
I know I haven't been the best of sons
G G F F
Hello, I've been traveling in the desert of my mind
Em Em C C G G
And I, I haven't found a drop...of life!
F F Em Em C C
I haven't found a drop...of You!
C C G G F F Em Em C C
I haven't found a dro-OOO op...
G G F F Em Em C C
I haven't found a dro-OOO op...
Of water...
