In the beginning honey you really loved me 
          F                    C 
I was too blind and I couldn't see 
G7             C                     Am  F 
But now you've left me oh Lord how I cried 
                    C     F                  C 
You don't miss your water till the well runs dry 

  G7       C 
I kept you crying sad and blue 
                  F                 C 
Honey I was a playboy I wouldn't be true 
G7           C                Am  F 
But when you left me and said goodbye

God I miss my water Jerry's well just ran dry

I never thought I never thought woman you'd ever leave me

But now you've left me oh how I cry

You don't miss your water till your well runs dry
