Down By The Water
[Verse 1]
E A
I lost my heart
E G E A
Under the bridge
E G E A
To that little girl
E G E A
So much to me
E G E A
And now I moan
E G E A
And now I holler
E G E A
She'll never know
E G E A
Just what I've found
[Chorus 1]
E G E A
That blue eyed girl (that blue eyed girl)
E G E A
She said "no more" (she said "no more")
E G E A
And that blue eyed girl (that blue eyed girl)
E G E A
Became blue eyed whore (big blue eyed whore)
E G E A
Down by the water (down by the water)
E G E A
I took her hand (I took her hand)
E G E A
Just like my daughter (just like my daughter)
E G E A
See her again (see her again)

E A E G
Oh help me Jesus
E A E G
Come through the storm
E A E G
I had to lose her
E A E G
To do her harm
E A E G
I heard her holler (I heard her holler)
E A E G
I heard her moan (I heard her moan)
E A E G
My lovely daughter (My lovely daughter)
E A E G
I took her home (I took her home)

Come back here, man, gimme my daughter.

So much to me
And now I moan
And now I holler
She'll never know
Just what I've found
That blue eyed girl (that blue eyed girl)
She said "no more" (she said "no more")
And that blue eyed girl (that blue eyed girl)
Became blue eyed whore (big blue eyed whore)
Down by the water (down by the water)
I took her hand (I took her hand)
Just like my daughter (just like my daughter)
See her again (see her again)

To do her harm
I heard her holler (I heard her holler)
I heard her moan (I heard her moan)
My lovely daughter (My lovely daughter)
I took her home (I took her home)

Come back here, man, gimme my daughter. /
