Van Morrison - And It Stoned Me: chords

G                     D                    C
Half a mile from the county fair, and the rain
              G
came pouring down
G              D                    C
Me and Billy standing there with a silver half a
  G
crown
G                  D                     C
Hands are full of fishing rods, and the tackle on
     G
our backs
G                    D                     C
We just stood there getting wet, with our backs
             G
against the fence

Am       D
Oh, the water
Am       D
Oh, the water
Am       D  Em
Oh, the water
                          D
Hope it don't rain all day

Chorus:
         G        C
And it stoned me to my soul
G                    D
Stoned me just like jelly roll
        Em     G
And it stoned me
         G        C
And it stoned me to my soul
G                    D
Stoned me just like going home
        Em     G
And it stoned me

And the rain let up
And the sun came up
And we were gettin' dry
Almost let a pick-up truck
Nearly pass us by
So we jumped right in
And the driver grinned
And he dropped us up the road
And we looked at the swim
And we jumped right in
Not to mention fishing poles

Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Let it run all over me

Chorus

On the way back home
We sang a song
But our throats were getting dry
Then we saw the man
From across the road
With the sunshine in his eyes
Well, he lived all alone
In his own little home
With a great big gallon jar
There were bottles too
One for me and you
And he said "Hey! There you are"

Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Get it myself from the mountain stream

Chorus:
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me
Well, it stoned me to my soul
Stoned on me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
Well. it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me
