Dire Straits
A, Am, C, D, Dm, F, G, Gb, Gm
High and dry in a long hot day
Lost and lonely every way
Got the flats all around the sky up above
Yes, I need a little
water love
Now I'm too long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out verses to the rain. I
Believe I've taken it up
Yes, I need a little water love Water love, deep in the ground
But there ain't no water here to be found Someday, baby, when the river runs free
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
There's a bird up in the tree, sitting up high,
just waiting for me to die.
If I don't get some water soon, I'll be dead and gone
in the afternoon.
Water all up, deep in the ground,
but there ain't no water here to be found.
Someday, baby, when the river runs free,
It's gonna carry that water of love to me
Once I had a woman, I could call her my own
Once I had a woman, now my woman she gone
Once there was a river, now there's a storm
You know it's evil when you're living alone
Water of love, deep in the ground
but there ain't no water here to be found. Someday baby when the river runs
free it's gonna carry that water of love to carry that water of love deep in the
ground but there ain't no water here to be found. Someday baby when the river
River runs free, it's gonna carry that water, oh love, to me.
