Only Water

 
               
 
D                         
There's a shadow coming 
       A 
as the sky goes black 
       G 
It's a stubborn rain 
on a Nebraska plain 
 
D 
There's a farmer standing 
     A 
on a thirsty ground 
   G 
He holds his breath 
This is life or death 
     G    A     D 
It's only water 
 
 
        Bm        G 
And it washes over me 
        Bm             G 
Like a single river stone 
        m              G                Em7                  
Changes everything but has no power on its own 
     G     A    D 
It's only water 
 
There's a winding canyon 
Where a mountain stood 
Miles of earth and clay 
Carried far away 
 
But there's something holy 
In these cathedral walls 
They took a lot of years 
And a lot of tears 
It's only water 
 
CHORUS 
 
There once was a wedding 
All the wine was gone 
They said He's just a man 
That's where it all began 
It was only water
