And It Stoned Me

G
D
C
G
Half a mile from the county fair, and the rain came pouring down
G
D
C
G
Me and Billy standing there, with a silver half a crown
G
D
C
G
Hands full of fishing gear, and the tackle on our backs
G
D
C
G
We just stood there getting wet, with our backs against the fence
Am
D
Am
D
Oh, the water, oh, the water
Am
D
Em
D
Oh, the water, let it run all over me
G
C
G
And it stoned me to my soul
G
D
Em
G
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll, and it stoned me
G
C
G
And it stoned me to my soul
G
D
Em
G
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll, and it stoned me
G
D
C
G
And the rain let up and the sun came out, we were getting dry
G
D
C
G
Almost glad a pick-up truck, nearly passed us by
G
D
C
G
So we jumped right in, and the driver grinned and he dropped us up the road
G
D
C
G
We looked at the swim and we jumped right in, not to mention fishing poles
Am
D
Am
D
Oh, the water, oh, the water
Am
D
Em
D
Oh, the water, let it run all over me
G
C
G
And it stoned me to my soul
G
D
Em
G
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll, and it stoned me
G
C
G
And it stoned me to my soul
G
D
Em
G
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll, and it stoned me
G
D
C
G
On the way back home, we sang a song, but our throats were getting dry
G
D
C
G
Then we saw the man, from across the road, with the sunshine in his eyes
G
D
C
G
Well, he lived all alone in his own little home, with a great big gallon jar
G
D
C
G
There were bottles too, one for me and you and he said, "hey, there you are"
Am
D
Am
D
Oh, the water, oh, the water
Am
D
Em
D
Oh, the water, let it run all over me
G
C
G
And it stoned me to my soul
G
D
Em
G
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll, and it stoned me
G
C
G
And it stoned me to my soul

Stoned me just like Jelly Roll, and it stoned me
