And It Stoned Me
G D
Half a mile from the county fair
C G
And the rain keep pourin' down
D
Me and Billy standin' there
C G
With a silver half a crown
D
Hands full of a fishin' rod
C g
And the tackle on our backs
D
We just stood there gettin' wet
C G
With our backs against the fence
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Em D (arpegio)
Hope it don't rain all day
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like goin' home
Em G
And it stoned me
G D
Then the rain let up and the sun came up
C G
And we were gettin' dry
D C G
Almost let a pick-up truck nearly pass us by
G D
So we jumped right in and the driver grinned
C G
And he dropped us up the road
D
We looked at the swim and we jumped right in
C G
Not to mention fishing poles
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Em D (arpegio)
Hope it don't rain all day
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like goin' home
Em G
And it stoned me
D
On the way back home we sang a song
C G
But our throats were getting dry
D
Then we saw the man across the road
C G
With the sunshine in his eyes
D
Well he lived all alone in his own little home
C G
With a great big gallon jar
D
There were bottles too, one for me and you
C G
And he said Hey! There you are
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Am D
Oh, the water
Em D (arpegio)
Get it myself from the mountain stream
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
Em G
And it stoned me
G C G
And it stoned me to my soul
G D
Stoned me just like goin' home
Em G
And it stoned me
