G                    D                    C                 G 
Half a mile from the county fair, and the rain came pouring down 
G            D                     C             G 
Me and Billy standing there with a silver half a crown 
G                 D                     C             G 
Hands are full of fishing rods, and the tackle on our backs 
G                   D                     C                 G 
We just stood there getting wet, with our backs against the fence
[Pre-Estribillo]
Am      D 
Oh, the water 
Am      D 
Oh, the water 
Am      D       Em 
Oh, the water 
                            D 
Hope it don't rain all day
[Estribillo]
       G         C           G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like jelly roll 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me 
       G         C            G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like going home 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me
[Estrofa]
        G                    D                C                G 
And the rain let up, and the sun came up, and we were getting dry 
G              D            C               G 
  Almost let a pickup truck nearly pass us by 
      G                       D 
So we jumped right in and the driver grinned 
       C                 G 
And he dropped us up the road 
       G                          D 
And we looked at the swim, and we jumped right in 
       C               G 
Not to mention fishing poles
[Pre-Estribillo]
Am      D 
Oh, the water 
Am      D 
Oh, the water 
Am      D       Em 
Oh, the water 
                        D 
Let it run all over me
[Estribillo]
       G         C           G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like jelly roll 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me 
       G         C            G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like going home 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me

       G                D                    C                    G 
On the way back home we sang a song, but our throats were getting dry 
        G                 D                       C               G 
Then we saw the man from across the road with the sunshine in his eyes 
        G                      D                      C                G 
Well he lived all alone in his own little home with a great big gallon jar 
           G                    D                  C                    G 
There were bottles too, one for me and you, and he said "hey, there you are"
[Pre-Estribillo]
Am      D 
Oh, the water 
Am      D 
Oh, the water 
Am      D       Em 
Oh, the water 
                                 D 
Get it myself from the mountain stream
[Estribillo]
       G         C           G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like jelly roll 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me 
       G         C            G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like going home 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me  
       G         C           G 
And it stoned me to my soul 
G                   D 
Stoned me just like jelly roll 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me 
       G         C                  G 
And it stoned        me to my soul 
G                         D 
Stoned me just like going home 
       Em     G 
And it stoned me
