Tuning: Standard This is most probably played in some open tuning, but I couldnt tab it that way, so I did it in standard. its more convenient, and sounds fine anyway. There are 3 guitar parts: strumming chords in background, slide, and clean electric guitar. ---INTRO: D C e|--/10--------------------------------|-----/10~~-------------------------|

D Yes, I need a little water of love --VERSE 2: D I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain D Crying out for some soothing rain Am I believe I've taken enough, D I need a little water of love -CHORUS: Am7 Water of love deep in the ground, G D but there aint no water here to be found Am7 Some day baby when the river runs free, G D It's gonna carry that water of love to me --SLIDE FILL:
