Black Oak Arkansas: High 'N Dry
from the Album High On The Hog (1973)
High 'N Dry
G
When the water is a risen
Am
Tell me where you gonna go
D
When the Dams are all a bustin'
Am
And it's floodin' down below
G
And the rushin' of the river
Am
Tells ya there's no place ta hide
D
You'll be high 'n dry babe
Am
Right by my side
Chorus:
G
High 'N Dry
Am C
with the waters down below
Am C
Runnin' where they want to go
F C
But they can't judge you no more
G
High 'N Dry
Am C
With the waters at high tide
Am D C G
With you here by my side we're High 'N Dry
verse2
G
When the streams are all a swollen
Am
and the rivers are a swellin'
D
And you cannot find a hole in which
Am
To hide 'cept one you fell in
G
And that muddy old man river
Am
Tries to take you for a ride
D
You'll be High 'N Dry babe
D
right by my side

With the waters at high tide
Am D C G
With you here by my side we're High 'N Dry
