Walking Over The Water Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][Bm]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I [D]raised my
glass toward heaven
On [F#m]that night that she was born
[Bm]Praised your name and gave you thanks
And I [G]bought the house around

[Verse 2]
She [D]came like a thief of glory
Stole my [F#m]pain and gave me life
These [Bm]tears I thought were long,
long gone
Fell like [G]rivers from my [A]eyes

[Verse 3]
[G]Was that you walking [Bm]over the wa[D]ter?
When [G]the sunlight that came
pouring through [D]the cracks
[G]Was that you shining in the face
my a daugh[D]ter?
Never [Bm]thought you'd come
[A]again to take me [G]back

[Verse 4]
[D]Raised my eyes toward heaven
She was [F#m]floatin' down our stairs
[Bm]
Backpack and a bright red skirt
[G]And a river of long black hair

[Verse 5]
He [D]came like a thief of glory
And he [F#m]stole her heart that day
Ever [Bm]since she started crawlin'
I always [G]knew she'd sail [A]away

[Verse 6]
[G]Was that you walking [D]over the water?
Well, [G]I watched my baby slippin'
through [D]the cracks
[G]Walked the isle and gave
away my daugh[D]ter
Never [Bm]thought there'd come a day [A]she
would [G]look back

[Interlude 1]
[D][F#m][Bm][G]

[Verse 7]
[D]Raised my fist toward heaven
From [F#m]that dark forsaken road
Blue [Bm]lights flashed on broken glass
[G]The siren left me cold

[Verse 8]
He [D]came like a thief of glory
And he [F#m]left a finger prints
Do [Bm]I thank you? Should I blame you?
[G]In a storm that won't [A]relent

[Verse 9]
[G]Was that you walking [D]over the water?
While [G]the ocean came pouring
[D]through the cracks
[G]Was that you calling out Adam's daugh[D]ter?
I never [Bm]thought you'd come [A]again
to take [G]her back

[Verse 10]
You always [Bm]said you'd come [A]again to take
[G]us back[D]
