Tall Drink Of Water Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I w[Dm]as ho[D]led up down in Texas
in the middle of Ju[Dm]ly
With a [G]big ol' thirsty moon
hangin' heavy in the sky
When a [A]sudden wild wind
blew a stranger along
With [D]dust on his heart
[G]and hon[A]ey on his [D]tongue[Dm][D]
Well, I was ready for some thunder
Cause that Friday night was [Dm]slow
[G]There's more to life
than [Dm]watching Ar[D]ma [G]dillos cross the road
I [A]saw him and I knew he'd
be a story to tell
The [D]liv[Dm]ing, [D]end of my [A]long,
[D]spell[Em][Fm]
[D]Was a [G]tall drink of water
Straight out of Babylon
[D]Six feet of country
Walking right into my dream
He was [A]like a river rolling,
but I slowed him down a lot
He was a [D]town drink of wa[Ddim]ter,
and [Bb]I dr[A]ank him dr[D]unk[Dm][D]
He was cool and gentle,
knew what love was all about
He [G]tore a hundred records
and that old moon out
As he [A]fired up his truck
and rode off into the dawn
I [D]felt the nerve,
a long, [A]hard, dry spell coming [D]on[Em]
[Fm]He w[G]as a[D] tal[G]l drink of water,
straight out of Babylon
[D]Six feet of country,
walking right into my dream
He was [A]like a river rolling,
but I slowed him down a lot
He was a [G]tall drink of water,
straight out of Babylon
[D]Six feet of country,
walking right into my dream
He [A]was like a river rolling,
but I slowed him down a lot
He was a [D]tall drink of wa[Ddim]ter,
and I [A]drank [D]every drop
He was a tall drink of water,
[A]and I drank every [D]drop[A][D]
[D]Sure could use another glass
of that you
