Water's So Cold Lyrics

THE WATER'S SO COLD
Recorded by Stonewall Jackson
Writer: Harlan Howard

[E] The crest of the waves, break [A] over my [E] head
My strength's about [A] gone and soon I'll be [E] dead
I'd rather be dead, out here in the [A] sea
Than to love a [E] woman, who'll [A] never love [E] me.

CHORUS
Oh! The Water's So [A] Cold (The Water's So Cold)
Out here in the [E] dark (out here in the dark)
The Water's So [A] Cold (The Water's So Cold)
((As cold as your [B7] heart))
The lights from the [E] shore (the lights from the shore)
Are fast growing [A] dim (are fast growing dim)
((The Water's So [E] Cold, I can't [A] hardly [E] swim.))

I offered my ring, I offered my name
She said, "You're a child!", she put me to shame
if she saw me now, she'd have to agree
Most men couldn't swim, this far out to sea.

CHORUS
