Cool Water Recorded by Eddy Arnold Written by Bob Nolan G D7 All day I've faced a barren waste G D7 G Without the taste of water cool water C D7 Old Dan and I with throats burnt dry G C G D7 G And souls that cry for water cool clear water D7 Keep a movin' Dan don't you listen to him Dan G D7 G He's a devil not a man and he spreads the burning sand with water C G Dan can you see that big green tree C D7 G Where the water's running free and it's waitin' there for you and me D7 The nights are cool and I'm a fool G D7 G Each star's a pool of water cool water C D7 But with the dawn I'll wake and yawn G C G D7 G And carry on to water cool clear water repeat #2 D7 Dan's feet are sore he's yearning for G D7 G Just one thing more than water cool water C D7 Like me I guess he'd like to rest G C G D7 G Where there's no quest for water cool clear water repeat #2
