Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][A][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Oh, the day the [D]well
went dry
I was caught with [A]soap in my eye
Soap in my eye made me cry
The day the well went [D]dry

[Verse 2]
[D]No more water down in the well
Who do we know? [A]Who can we tell?
Where will we tell them?
Say "oh my",
the day the well went [D]dry

[Verse 3]
'Cause there's [D]no more water [A]down
No more water [D]down
[G]No more water, [D]down in the well
[A]Honey, forget the [D]pail
[A]

[Verse 4]
[D]
Water- witcher came today
Said water was three-
hundred [A]feet away
Driller said a foot costs nine
What a price to [D]pay

[Verse 5]
So I [D]hooked up a hose to
my neighbor's yard
Said we could take all the [A]wa ter we need
'Til we get our new well dug

[Verse 6]
Just bein' neighborly
[D]'Cause there's no more wat[A]er down
No more water [D]down
[G]No more water [D]down in the well
[A]Honey, forget the pail

[Verse 7]
[D]Everybody's tryin' to cheer me up
Even gave me a [A]bottle of rye
Bottle of rye, mud in your eye
I ain't got the mud 'cause
my well [D]is dry

[Verse 8]
[D]My poor well is dry as a bone
Its heyday has [A]come and gone
Come and gone, me oh my
The day the well went [D]dry

[Verse 9]
'Cause there's [D]no more [A]water down
No more water [D]down
[G]No more water [D]down in the well
[A]Honey, forget the pail
