[Verse]
G D
Half a mile from the county fair, and the
C G
rain came pouring down
G D C
Me and Billy standing there with a silver
G
half a crown
G D
Hands are full of fishing rods, and the
C G
tackle on our backs
G D
We just stood there getting wet, with our
C G
backs against the fence
[Pre-Chorus]
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 G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like jelly roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like going home
Em G
And it stoned me
[Verse]
G D
And the rain let up, and the sun came up,
C G
and we were getting dry
G D C
Almost let a pickup truck nearly pass us
G
by
G D
So we jumped right in and the driver
grinned
C G
And he dropped us up the road
G D
And we looked at the swim, and we jumped
right in
C G
Not to mention fishing poles
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D Em
Oh, the water
D
Let it run all over me
[Chorus]
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like jelly roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like going home
Em G
And it stoned me
[Instrumental Verse]
G D C G x4
Am D Am D Am D
Em D
[Verse]
G D
On the way back home we sang a song, but
C G
our throats were getting dry
G D
Then we saw the man from across the road
C G
with the sunshine in his eyes
G D
Well he lived all alone in his own little
C G
home with a great big gallon jar
G D
There were bottles too, one for me and you,
C G
and he said "hey, there you are"
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D Em
Oh, the water
D
Get it myself from the mountain stream
[Chorus]
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like jelly roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like going home
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like jelly roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like going home
Em G
And it stoned me
