VERSE 1: G D Hello, We haven't talked in quite some time Em C I know, I haven't been the best... of sons G D Hello I've been traveling the deserts of my mind Em C G And I, haven't found a drop... of life D Em C I haven't found a drop... of you G D I haven't found a drop Em C G I haven't found a drop... of water G D Em C Water
VERSE 2: G I try desperately to run through the sand as I D Hold the water In the palm of my hand Em 'Cause It's all that I have and it's all that I need and C The waves of the water mean nothing to me and I G I try my best, with all that I can to D Hold tightly onto what's left in my hand Em But no matter how, how tightly I will strain C The sand will slow me down, and the water will drain G I'm just being dramatic in fact, I'm only at it again D As an Addict With A Pen who's addicted to the wind Em As it blows me back and forth, mindless, spineless I pretend C Of course I'll be here again, see you tomorrow but it's the end of today G And of my ways as a walking denial D My trial was filed as a crazy suicidal head case Em But you specialize in dying, you hear me screaming father C And I'm lying here just crying, so wash me with your water VERSE 1: G D Hello, We haven't talked in quite some time Em C I know, I haven't been the best... of sons G D Hello I've been traveling the deserts of my mind Em C G And I, haven't found a drop... of life D Em C I haven't found a drop... of you G D I haven't found a drop Em C G I haven't found a drop... of water G D Em C
