Cool Water
C G7
All day I've faced the barren waste
C G7 C
with out the taste of water, cool water
F G7
Ole Dan and I with throats burned dry
C F C G7 C
and souls that cry for water, cool, clear water
C G7
The nights are cool and I'm a fool
C G7 C
Each star's a pool of water.... cool, clear water
F G7
And with the dawn I'll wake and yawn
C F C G7 C
and carry on to water ,cool, clear water
C G7
The shadows sway and seem to say
C G7 C
tonight we pray for water, cool, clear water
F G7
And way up there He'll hear our prayer
C F C G7 C
and show us where there's water, cool, clear water
C G7
Keep a movin' Dan don't you listen to him Dan
C G7 C
He's the devil, not a man he spreads the burnin' sand with water
F G7
Say Dan can't you see that big green tree
F G7 C
where the water's runnin' free, it's waiting there for you and me
G7 C
And water, cool, clear water
C G7
Dan's feet are sore he's yearnin' for
C G7 C
Just one thing more than water, cool, clear water
F G7
Like me I guess he'd like to rest
C F C G7 C
Where there's no quest for water, cool, clear water
