Water When The Well Is Dry

Year: 2002 - Album: Midnight and Lonesome

Written by Buddy Miller

	  		F#m  A  Bm  F#m  4x 
 
F#m                       A 
Down on the corner of the dead end street 
Bm                       F#m 
Too many tears and not a drop of relief 
F#m                            A         
It'll shake up your soul it'll tear down your pride 
Bm                        F#m 
Honey keep your eyes pure let us tell no lies 
F#m                  A 
Hatred is a criminal out on the loose 
Bm                           F#m 
Love might be a judge with a hangman's noose 
F#m                         A 
It'll make you strong it'll make you bitter 
Bm                     F#m              
I got to find myself a strong deliverer 
A                 E 
I need a drink of something like water 
Bm                D 
I need a taste of love divine 
A                        E 
Sometimes you just gotta do what you oughtta 
Bm                         D                      F#m 
Sometimes you bring up the water when the well is dry 
 
F#m  A  Bm  F#m  2x 
 
F#m                          A 
Gone out walking through the city tonight 
Bm                              F#m 
Sittin through the wreckage underneath the lights 
F#m                    A 
All you can do is pray with all your might 
Bm                           F#m 
There's a few thousand souls no where in sight 
F#m                             A 
It's hard to swing at something you can't see 
Bm                               F#m 
Sometimes we just don't know the enemy 
F#m                A 
Can't live by fear can't live by deception 
Bm                            F#m 
Hey I'm a man of peace with a few exceptions 
A                 E 
I need a drink of something like water 
Bm                D 
I need a taste of love divine 
A                        E 
Sometimes you just gotta do what you oughtta 
Bm                         D                      F#m 
Sometimes you bring up the water when the well is dry 
 
F#m  A  Bm  F#m  2x 
 
D       A 
When the world starts shaking 
        E                       Bm              D 
And the walls are breaking down till nothing's left 
     A                    E 
Baby you're gonna need to hold onto something that is 
D             F#m 
Stronger than yourself 
F#m                 A 
Baby your eyes were wet with tears 
Bm            F#m 
Your skin was drenched in sorrow 
F#m                  A 
But you kiss was an open door 
Bm                    F#m 
So I walked thru to a new tomorrow 
F#m                   A 
Honey like a blade of finest steel 
Bm                F#m 
Yea like an arrow straight and true 
F#m              A 
Like gold in the hottest fire 
Bm                      F#m  
Baby that is my love my love for you 
A                 E 
I need a drink of something like water 
Bm                D 
I need a taste of love divine 
A                        E 
Sometimes you just gotta do what you oughtta 
Bm                         D                      F#m 
Sometimes you bring up the water when the well is dry 
 
F#m  A  Bm  F#m  4x
