G                               C                           G     C      G                            C 

Living would be easy without all this conversation       Everybody always wondering

                  D                C                                G              C                                 G    F#

what it's all about           How much did you get paid            How much did you get laid?

Em                                                D 

Tell me what's the cost of living anymore

              G                                        C                            G            C 

Cause I remember when the summer heat would melt the pavement 

G                                      C                               D 

Sitting on the corner of the porch watching cars go by

             C                   G                           C                   G    F#

Well before the bitter haze                of my beer drinking days,

Em                                                D 

that came way too soon and haven't left

            C                     D                      G           F#    Em 

. Looking down that old road                I know not what I see.

                  C                        D              G        F#       Em 

The bridge is high, the water is low         just like you and me.

                C              D                            G       F#     Em 

There's a song that I heard                    on the radio      today

                     C                          D                          G C G C 

that took me back         took me back            to watertown. 



G                                          C                        G    C

Dad was in the army when we moved to the watertown 

G                                                  C        D 

. He said we'd get to Texas when he figured how

                  C                  G       C                          G F#      Em                    D 

And there's angels down there, there's people who care       seagulls and humid air. 

              C                    D         G          F#       Em

Looking down that old road       I know not what I see.

                     C                      D           G         F#         Em

The bridge is high, the water is low        just like you and me.

                C               D                                    G F#       Em

There's a song that I heard                       on the radio        today

C                                                  D

that took me back,             took me back

C                                             G                       C                             G 

I remember the day my mamma cried, when she heard that Elvis had died.

F#         Em                                                  D

And her tears fell to the shaggy carpet of her room

                C                   D                 G        F#        Em

. Looking down that old road             I know not what I see

                      C                       D                 G          F#           Em

The bridge is high, the water is low              just like you and      me. 

                 C                D                         G F#             Em

There's a song that I heard                on the radio          today

               C                              D                                G C G C G

took me back,               took me back              to watertown
