N.C. C F C
You push me when I'm

I should
have been a clown
E7
How much more
E7 Am G F
How much more can
I stand
C
You're pouring water
F C
On a drowning
man
You put me on the right track
And then you put me down
You stab me in
the back
Everytime I turn around
Criticize my lovin'
When I'm doing the
very best I can
You're pouring water
On a drowning man
Chorus:
N.C.

You bet that I like everything you do
G C
Put salt in my
wounds
F G
It's sad but it's true
You warm me with your
kisses
Then you leave me in the cold
How can I know your wishes
When I've
never been told
Won't you please forgive me
Just try and understand
You're
pouring water
On a drowning man
Chorus
You're pouring water
On a drowning
man
You treat me like
The fool that I am
You bet that I like everything you
do
Put salt in my wounds
It's sad but it's true
You warm me with your
kisses
Then you leave me in the cold
How can I know your wishes
When I've
never been told
Won't you please forgive me
Just try and understand
You're
pouring water
On a poor drowning man

I got tears in my
eyes

Oh, I'm a drowning man

I got
tears in my eyes
