Well, I went down the water by the waters today
Something on my mind would not go away.
[A#m] Yeah, that cute girl from the bookstore that didn't even [F#m] know [C#] my name.
Well, a [A#] fish with ugly eyes jumped into [F#] my hands.
[C#] Boy, it was no surprise.
I was begging again.
[F#m] Well, I seemed to only want them before they put the [C#] coins in my tin.
[F#] Yeah, but I've [B] been known [G#m] to wander by the waters every now and again.
[D]
[B] [A#] Yeah, but my teachers always said,
I'm [A#m] gonna get [F#m] hurt.
[C#] Them girls are known to shove.
They'll push you under.
[F#m] Well, I don't think I listen,
or I kinda [C#] like the way that it burns.
Yeah, [A#m] but my only spot of refuge is the stream in the town.
[C#] Well, the river gives a feeling that your [G#m] sorrows can dry out.
[F#] Well, I jump into the [F#m] water where the fishes [G#m] and the minnows can [C#] swim.
[A#m] Yeah, but I've been known to wander by the waters [F#] every now and [C#] again.

Yeah, [A#] I've been known to wander [F#] by the waters [G#] every now and [A#m] again.
Well, [F#] sometimes I feel [G#] like [C#] I am dying.
[F#] Yeah, I [F#m] need someone [C#] to revive me.
[F#m] Yeah, but by the waters, [C#] that's where she can find me.
[A#m] Yeah, on the mountain [A] waters, [A#m] [F#m] that's where, [G#m] oh, she
[C#] can find me.
