C G Dm F


[Verse]
F               C
I thought about water
                    G
I thought about the roads late at night
                Dm
I thought about drinking
             F
I started to hope you were all right


F                   C
And I thought about calling
          G
But I was afraid you'd be asleep
                Dm
I thought about God as a shepherd
              F
Wandering the hills looking for lost sheep

F                   C
And I thought about Wild Rosemarie
             G
How that was who you used to be
                   Dm
How the wilderness sprang up around us
     F
This dry desert heat

F                   C          G     Dm    F
And I thought about water

F               C
I thought about honey
              G
How I used to call you by its name
                Dm
How you move so slow and sticky
                       F
Down my throat and how dry I became

[Verse]
F                   C
I thought about the highways
            G
All tangled up like a ball of snakes
               Dm
And the poison backroads
           F
And what a long time it would take to find you

C
Wild Rosemarie
               G
All cracked up on I-93
                    Dm
The choice was your own

To strip flesh from the bone
    F
And become really free

F                   C
And I thought about water
       G
How it drowned us after all
               Dm
How we used to thirst for it
                        F
To burst forth from the sky and start to fall

F              C
And I just got scared
                    G
That you were still out wandering tonight
               Dm
So here's this letter
               F
And I hope you made it back all right

F    C
Love always
