E5 B5 1. All day I face the barren waste E5 B5 E5 Without the taste of water, cool water A5 B5 Old Dan and I with throats burned dry E5 A5 E5 B5 E5 And souls that cry for water, cool, clear, water CHORUS E5 B5 Keep a-movin' Dan don't ya listen to him Dan E5 B5 E5 He's a devil of a man and he spreads the burning sand with water A5 E5 Dan can you see that big green tree A5 Where the water's running free B5 E5 And it's waiting there for you and me? 2. The nights are cool and I'm a fool Each star's a pool of water, cool water But with the dawn I'll wake and yawn And carry on to water, cool, clear, water 3. The shadows sway and seem to say Tonight we pray for water, cool, water And way up there He'll hear our prayer And show us where there's water, cool, clear, water 4. Dan's feet are sore he's yearning for Just one thing more than water, cool, water Like me I guess he'd like to rest Where there's no quest for water, cool, clear, water
