Chorus:
    G                         D  
Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time
   Em                      C          G
I know I haven't been the best of sons
                                    D  
Hello, I've been traveling in the desert of my mind
    Em                  C
And I haven't found a drop
    G    D  
Of life.
                   Em      C
I haven't found a drop Of you
                    G  D  
I haven't found a drop
                   Em C
I haven't found a drop
    G    D   Em C
Of water
 G   D   Em C
Water        Ooohh
G   D   Em C
ahh...

G
I tried desperately to run through the sand
      D  
As I hold the water in the palm of my hand
 Em
'Cause it's all that I have,
and it's all that I need
         C
And the waves of the water mean nothing to me
G
But I tried my best and all that I can
          D  
To 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

I'm just bein' dramatic, in fact,
I'm only at it again
As an addict with a pen
who's addicted to the wind
As it blows me back and forth,
bindless, spineless, and pretend
Of course I'll be here again,
see You tomorrow, but it's the end of today
End of my ways as a walking denial
My trial was filed as a crazy,
suicidal head-case
But You specialize in dyin',
You hear me screamin', "Father!"
And I'm lyin' here just cryin',
so wash me with Your water
