Dire Straits - Water Of Love: chords

D
High and dry in the long hot day,
lost and lonely in every way
         Am
Got the flats all around me, sky up above,
D
yes, I need a little water of love

I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe I have taken enough
Yes, I need a little water of love

Chorus:
Am
Water of love deep in the ground,
           G                   D
but there ain’t no water here to be found
Am
Some day baby when the river runs free,
            G                   D
It's gonna carry that water of love to me

There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Just a-waiting for me to die
If I don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon

Chorus

Once I had a woman I could call my own
Once I had a woman, now my woman she gone
Once there was a river, now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone
