CHG 09 Water on the Horizon

intro: |D          |GA D  |x2

There's water on the horizon

See it glistening in the sun

However it goes gonna splash my toes

Before the day is done

There's water on the horizon

I feel it in my bones

Before I sleep I'll be drinking deep

Lying on the stones

There's water on the horizon

Though the sun it cracks my skin

If I stick it out without a doubt

I'll soon be wading in

There's water on the horizon

Though I need to slake my thirst

I'll whistle a tune but if I  don't get there soon

I'll start to fear the worst

| D       |D(C)   |G        | D       |D        |D(C)| G  Gm | Bm     |Bm     |D        |D        |

There's water on the horizon

It's been there all the day

But what is surprising

Is it keeps getting further away

Is there water still on the horizon?

'fraid my vision's getting blurred

I'm feeling weak and unsteady on my feet

And words are coming slurred

Is there water still on the horizon?

There's a pounding in my head

I fear I'll swoon if it don't come soon

And then I'll end up dead
