Mark Knopfler Water Of Love
[Intro] D Am G D
D
High and dry in the long hot day
D
Lost and lonely every way
Am
Got the flats all around me sky up above
D
Yes I need a little water of love
D
I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain
D
Crying out for some soothing rain
Am
I believe I have taken enough
D
Yes I need a little water of love
[Chorus]
Am7
Water of love deep in the ground
G D
But there ain't no water here to be found
Am7
Some day baby when the river runs free
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
[Bridge] D Am G D
[Verse 2]
D
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
D
Just a-waiting for me to die
Am
If I don't get some water soon
D
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
[Chorus]
Am7
Water of love deep in the ground
G D
But there ain't no water here to be found
Am7
Some day baby when the river runs free
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
[Bridge] D Am G D
[Verse 3]
D
Once I had a woman I could call my own
D
Once I had a woman now my woman she gone
Am
Once there was a river now there's a Stone
D
You know it's evil when you're living alone
[Chorus] (2x)
Am7
Water of love deep in the ground
G D
But there ain't no water here to be found
Am7
Some day baby when the river runs free
G D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me (Carry that)
[Outro] G Am G D
