Verse 1:

Em C G
I know I haven’t been the best of sons

Verse 2:
G
I tried desperately to run through the sand

As I hold the water in the palm of my hand

Verse 3:

I’m just begin dramatic, in fact

As it blows me back and forth
Mindless, 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

And I’m lying here just crying
G D/F# Em C
So wash me with your water

Hello, we haven’t talked in quite some time
I know I haven’t been the best of sons

And I, I haven’t found a drop…of life!
I haven’t found a drop…of You!
I haven’t found a drooooooop…
I haven’t found a drooooooop…
Of water…
