 (Originally by William Bell)
 In the be-ginning,  you really loved  me,
 I was too blind;  I could  not see.
 
 But now that you left me, oh,
 How I cried, I  keep crying.
 You don't miss your water,  'till your well  runs dry.
 I kept you crying,  sad and blue,  oh my, oh.
 I was a playboy;  I could  not be true.
 
 But now that you left me,
 How I cried;  I keep crying,  I keep crying.
 Ooh, you don't miss your water,
 No, I never miss my water,  'till my well runs dry.
 I sit here and  wonder; how in the world this could be?
 My, oh my, I  never thought,
 Oh, I never thought you'd  ever leave me.
 
 But now that you left me,
 Good Lord, good  Lord, how I cried  out;
 You don't miss your water,
 You don't miss your water,  'till your well runs dry.
 Ooh, you don't miss your water,  'till your well runs dry.
 I miss my water,
 I keep missing my water,
 I keep missing my water.
 And I want my water,
 I need my water,
 I love my water,
 And I want my water.
 And I'm little thirsty  now,
 And I'm little thirsty  now.

[G]  [D7]

In the be-[G]ginning, you really [G7]loved me,
I was too [C]blind; I [G]could not see.
                 [G]        [G/f#]
But now that you left me, oh,
[Em] How I cried, [D]I keep crying. [C]

You don't miss your [G]water,[C] 'till your [G]well runs dry.

I kept you [G]crying, sad and [G7]blue, oh my, oh.
I was a [C]playboy; I [G]could not be true.
                 [G]       [G/f#]
But now that you left me,
How I [Em]cried; I keep [D]crying, I keep [C]crying.

Ooh, you don't miss your [G]water,
No, I never miss my water,[C] 'till my well runs [G]dry.

I sit here [G]and wonder; how in the world this could [G7]be?
My, oh my, [C]I never thought,
Oh, I never thought [G]you'd ever leave me.
                 [G]       [G/f#]
But now that you left me,
[Em] Good Lord, [D]good Lord, how I [C]cried out;

You don't miss your [G]water,
You don't miss your [C]water, 'till your well runs [G]dry.
Ooh, you don't miss your water,[C] 'till your well runs [G]dry.

I miss my [G]water,[C]   [G]
I keep missing my [G]water,[C]   [G]
I keep missing my [G]water.[C]   [G]
And I want my [G]water, [C]    [G]
I need my [G]water,[C]   [G]
I love my [G]water,[C]   [G]
And I want my [G]water.[C]   [G]
And I'm little [G]thirsty now,[C]   [G]
And I'm little [G]thirsty now.[C]   [G]
