[Verse 1]
G                     C  G
I hate this old place
G                     C  G
And what it represents
G                     C  G
And I hate who I was
G                       C  G
And who I ended up since
G                         Am  D/F#           G
But if you learned how to swim in case you'd drowned
 
 
[Chorus]
G                     Am  D/F#
Don't ask her for the water
                         G    C  G  C
Cause she'll swallow you down
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                           C  G
And she's ten miles of peace
G                         C  G
And the hardest of nights
G                        C  G
And her belfry's got arch
G                         C  G
But her rooftops all right
G                     Am  D/F#
But down here in the sewer
               G   C  G
I'm smelling a rat
 
 
[Chorus]
G                     Am      Bb
Don't ask her for the Whiskey
          D/F#       G  C  F6sus2  C  G  C
Cause her waters all that
 
 
[Verse 3]
G                       C  G
And what horses we rode
G                         C  G
Through what sombre fields
G                       C  G
With our lovers at war
G                       C  G
And the dust on their heels
G                         C  D
And the infidels screamed,
G                   C  G
"it's all but a lie"
 
 
[Chorus]
G                     Am  D/F#
Don't ask her for the water,
                          G    C  G  C
Cause she'll teach you to cry
G                     Am  D/F#
Don't ask her for the water
                         G    C  G  G  C  G  G  C  F6sus2  C  G  C
Cause she'll teach you to cry
 
 
[Verse 4]
G                       C  G
And her weapon of choice,
G                         C  G
Is a red-patterned dress
G                         C  G
And a sac full of stones
G                         C  G
With her hands on her chest
G                         C  G
And a book full of quotes
G                         C  G
And a tight fastened lip
 
 
[Chorus]
G                     Am  D/F#
Don't ask her for the water
                          G    C  G  C
Cause you'll sink like a ship
G                     Am  D/F#
Don't ask her for the water
                         G    C  G
Cause you'll sink like a ship
