Adder

(D)  G                 A          Bm
There is water at the bottom of the sea
    G                A          C                 A
Beneath the plastic island and white chemical stream
     G                 A          Bm
There is water at the bottom of the sea

     G                 A          Bm
I asked for water and they gave me gasoline
     G                 A          Bm
I asked for water and they gave me gasoline
    G                A          C                 A
They said gasoline's expensive and water's often free
     G                 A          Bm
I asked for water and they gave me gasoline

     G                 A          Bm
I asked for water and they gave me gasoline
     G                 A          Bm
I asked for a drink and they gave me turpentine
    G                A          C                 A
They put the spike into the world and turn their money green
     G                 A          Bm
I asked for water and they gave me gasoline

     G                 A          Bm
If I were a bird a bull would step on me
     G                 A          Bm
He's twist my nose and break up all my wings
    G                A          C                 A
The only thing left over would be the little song I sing
     G                 A          Bm
If I were a bird a bull would step on me

     G                 A          Bm
If I were a bull a butcher I would see
     G                 A          Bm
Like an animal that's carved before he's free
    G                A          C                 A
But if I were a butcher my apron would be clean
     G                 A          Bm
If I were a bull a butcher I would see

G  A  Bm
G  A  Bm
G  A  C  A
G  A  Bm

     G                 A          Bm
An adder wrapped it's neck around me
     G                 A          Bm
So that I'll see the bad things that he sees
    G                A          C                 A
And when I'm too much like him that's when he will eat me
