[Verse 1]
C                                                F          Fsus4 F
Back in the wood where it's good and the days are yeah long
      C                                              F         Fsus4 F
Well I saw me a child, she was wild like a lady going all wrong
C                                                  F       Fsus4 F
Dark as the night, she was right for a little conversation
    C                                                  F        Fsus4 F
So I pulled her right in and she said she had some imagination

[Chorus]
G                  G6 G
Black swampy water
F                  Fsus4 F
That's where I caught her
G                  G6 G
Black swampy water
            F      Fsus4 F
Black swampy water

[Verse 2]
C                                            F         Fsus4 F
We didn't speak, felt weak, got tangled up in her hair
     C                                                     F          Fsus4 F
So we lay in the grass, what a gas, you can't know that you were there
         C                                                F           Fsus4 F
So then I let it all go, what a show was like blowing up a freight train
      C                                           F          Fsus4 F
Then around the world I would go like jumping on a jet plane

[Chorus]
G                  G6 G
Black swampy water
F                  Fsus4 F
That's where I caught her
G                  G6 G
Black swampy water
F                Fsus4 F
Ooh, what I taught her, yeah

C                                                F          Fsus4 F
Back in the wood where it's good and the days are yeah long
      C                                              F         Fsus4 F
Well I saw me a child, she was wild like a lady going all wrong

[Chorus]
      G             G6 G
I'm in black swampy water
      F             Fsus4 F
Oh no, that's where I caught her
G            G6 G
Black swampy water
    F                 Fsus4 F
Ooh, all things that I taught her

[Chorus]
          G             G6 G
Yes I'm in black swampy water
       F         Fsus4 F
My, my, where I saw her
G            G6 G
Black swampy water
F                Fsus4 F           G F G F
What I did when I caught her, yeah
