Johnnie Taylor

The Water

by Johnnie Taylor
Johnnie Taylor

Biography:

Johnnie Harrison Taylor (born May 5, 1937, Crawfordsville, Arkansas; died May 31, 2000, Dallas, Texas) was an American musician that sang in a wide variety of genres, including blues, disco, gospel, pop, and soul. Often using an energetic, belting delivery, he's perhaps best known for his work for the iconic Stax/Volt label, particularly with southern soul classics such as "Who's Making Love" and "Jody's Got Your Girl and Gone" in which he held his own against friendly rivals such as Otis Redding and Sam & Dave.

intro:
C G C F
C G Am F


C G F
All that I have is a river
Am E
The river is always my home
C F Am F
Lord, take me away for I just cannot stay
C G Am
Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones


C G C F
The water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
The water can't drown me, I'm done
F C
With my dyy...ing

-------

C G F
Please help me build a small boat
Am E
One that'll ride on the flow
C F Am F
Where the river runs deep, and the larger fish creep
C G Am
I'm glad of what keeps me afloat


C G C F
The water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
The water can't drown me, I'm done
F C
With my dyy...ing

-------

C G F
Now deeper the water I sail
Am E
And faster the current I'm in
C F Am F
So wide is my river, the horizon a sliver
C G Am
The artist has run out of paint


C G C F
The water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
The water can't drown me, I'm done
F C
With my dyy...ing

-------


C G F
Where the blue of the sea meets the sky
Am E
And the big yellow sun leads me home
C F Am F
I'm everywhere now, the way is a vow
C G Am
To the wind of each breath by and by


C G C F
The water sustains me without even trying
C G Am
The water can't drown me, I'm done
F C
With my dyy...ing
