Something In The Water Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Cm]She don't look like her mother
Nothing like her father
How else can you explain it [C]must

[Interlude 1]
be something in the water
[C][Cm][C][Cm]

[Verse 2]
[Cm]Pig tails, overalls, freckles on her face
[C]Ski[Cm]nny as a toothpick
[C]turned side ways,
[Cm]Something happened to her
when she [C]turned sixteen,
From a little Dixie Chicken to
a Mississippi Queen,

[Verse 3]
[Cm]She[C][G][C]
[Cm]spent her days a
fishin' with a bamboo cane
Every night skinny dippin'
in the [C]Pontchartrain
If you were living breatin', had
two feet
You would be stalking that girl
cause she looked so [F]sweet

[Verse 4]
[F]You could always find her when
the night time [G]fell,[C]
[F]Drinkin' of a bucket from
an old [G]stone [C]well,
[F]Drinking from her hand,
Dancing to the moon,
[Cm]She don't look like her mother,
[C]nothing like her father,
How [Cm]else can you explain it [G]must
be something in the water.
[C]

[Verse 5]
I [Cm]never will forget that look
in her [C]eye
The night [Cm]she took me
down [C]to the riverside,
She wrapped herself [Cm]around
me [C]like a honey suckle vine
An let me have a taste of [G]wild [C]cherry wine
[F]You could always find her when
the nighttime [G]fell[C]
[F]Drinking of a bucket from
an [G]old stone [C]well
[F]Drinking from her hand
Singing to the moon
She [C]don't look [Cm]like her [C]mother
[G]Not[C]hing like her fat[G]her
[C]Folks round here [G]say it's something in
the [F]wa [C]ter

[Verse 6]
[C]Two straight months [Cm]without [C]any rain
[Cm]I never ever saw t[C]hat [F]girl[C] again[F]
But [C]I still got [Eb]her picture
[Cm]Burning in my [Eb]head
[Cm]Dancing [C]in a downpour
[G]Soaking wet[C][G]
[F]You could always find when
the night time [G]fell
[F]Drinking of a buck of an [G]old stone [C]well
[F]Drinking from her hand
howling at the moon
She [Cm]don't look like her [C]mother
noth[Cm]ing like her father
[G]How else can you explain it must
be something [Dm]in the wa[Bb] ter
[C]She don't look like her mother
[Eb]nothing [Bb]like her f[C]ather
Folks round here say it [F]something [C]in[Cm][C][F]
the [C]water
