[Intro]
G C G C G C G C G C D Am C G Dm Am C G
[Verse 1]
Dm F
Well I was shacked up down in Mobile
G Dm G Dm
With a girl from New York City.
Am G
She woke me up one night to tell me
Dm C Dm
That we weren't alone.
F C
She said she saw the ghost
Dm F Dm
Of a woman staring at me.
F C
I told her not to worry,
Am Dm F Dm
But in the morning when I woke up, she was gone.
F G
So I headed on to Florida where
Dm F Dm
I tangled with some sailors.
F
And as I lay bloody on the wharf,
G Dm G Dm
I cursed the ship they sailed on.
Am F C
Wouldn't you know, twenty four hours later
Am Dm Am Dm Am
That ship sank into the ocean
F C Am
Disappearing like an unwanted memory
Dm F Dm
Beneath the waves.
[Chorus 1]
G Am A Am
I guess it's 'cause, still waters run,
G D Am
Run deep in me
D Am G
'Cause I got this crazy way
N.C. A D C D C
Crazy way I'm swimming in still waters. (Still waters)
[Verse 2]
Dm F
And I was woke up just before dawn
G Dm G Dm
By an old man crying in the rain.
D F
He was drunk and he was lonely
G Dm G Dm G
And as he passed by he sang a hymn.
F C
And as I lay there listening,
Am Fm Dm D Dm G
Well I almost joined him in that song
F C
But instead I just held my peace,
Am Dm G Dm G
And waited 'till that old man moved along.
F
Then later on that day about
G Dm D Dm
A quarter mile out of town,
D F
I found his body hanging in
G Dm G Dm G
A grove of pines, swaying in the wind.
Am F C Am
And as he swang that rope sang another hymn
Dm G Dm G
To Jesus,
F C
And this time though I don't know why,
Am Dm Am Dm
I somehow felt inclined to sing along.
[Chorus 2]
G Am C Am
I guess it's cause, still waters run,
G Am C
Run deep in me
Am G
'Cause I got this crazy way
N.C. Dm C G Dm C G D
crazy way I'm swimming in still waters. Still waters
[Verse 3]
D
Don't you know there's projects for the dead
G Dm F Dm
And there are projects for the living
F
Thought I must confess sometimes
G Dm
I get confused by that distinction
F C
And I just throw myself into the arms
A Dm
Of that which would betray me.
F C Am
I guess to see how far Providence
Dm G Dm
Will stoop down just to save me.
[Chorus 3]
Am C D Am
And it's all because, still waters run,
G D
Run deep in me
A Am G
'Cause I've got this crazy way
N.C D Am C
Crazy way I'm swimming in still waters...
A Dm C G D C Dm G Dm C G C G C
swimming in still waters... stil waters.
