Intro

Verse 1

In the be-ginning, you really loved me,

I was too blind; I could not see.

[G/f#]

But now that you left me, oh,

How I cried, I keep crying.

You don't miss your water, 'till your well runs dry.

Verse 2

I kept you crying, sad and blue, oh my, oh.

I was a playboy; I could not be true.

[G/f#]

But now that you left me,

How I cried; I keep crying, I keep crying.

Ooh, you don't miss your water,

No, I never miss my water, 'till my well runs dry.

Verse 3

I sit here and wonder; how in the world this could be?

My, oh my, I never thought,

Oh, I never thought you'd ever leave me.

[G/f#]

But now that you left me,

Good Lord, good Lord, how I cried out;

You don't miss your water,

You don't miss your water, 'till your well runs dry.

Ooh, you don't miss your water, 'till your well runs dry.

Coda

I miss my water,

I keep missing my water,

I keep missing my water.

And I want my water,

I need my water,

I love my water,

And I want my water.

And I'm little thirsty now,

And I'm little thirsty now.
