(verse 1) 
 
C               Em       F                      C 
Friends I could count on   I could count on one hand, 
                F         G  F - G 
with a leftover finger or two, 
C              Em      F                   C 
I took 'em for granted, let 'em all slip away, 
F             G            C    F 
Now where they are I wish I knew, 

G C Em F C They roll by, just like water F G C F - G and I guess we never learn C Em F Go through life, parched and empty C F G standin' knee deep in a river C Em - F - G and dyin' of thirst
(verse 2) C Em F C Sometimes I remember, sweethearts I've known, F G F - G Some I've forgotten I suppose, C Em F C One or two still linger, oh and I wonder now, F G C F why I ever let them go,
G C Em F C They roll by, just like water, F G C F - G and I guess we never learn, C Em F Go through life, parched and empty, C F G standin' knee deep in a river, C Em - F - G - C - Em - F and dyin' of thirst,
-----------> up 1/2 step<-------------- (verse 3) C# Fm F# C# So the sidewalk is crowded, the city goes by, F# G# - F# - G# and I rush through another day, C# Fm F# C# and a world full of strangers, turn their eyes to me, F# G# C# F# but I just look the other way, (chorus) G# C# Fm F# C# They roll by just like water, F# G# C# F# - G# and I guess we never learn, C# Fm F# Go through life, parched and empty, C# F# standin' knee deep in a river, G# C# F# and dyin' of thirst, G# C# Fm F# C# They roll by just like water, F# G# C# F# - G# and I guess we never learn, C# Fm F# Go through life, parched and empty, C# F# standin' knee deep in a river, G# C# Fm F# G# C# and dyin' of thirst,
