C                               F
Sparkling lights like diamonds along the river shore,

G                                         C
seems like nothing's changed at all since I was here before.

     C                            F
Been through some stormy weather, somehow I survived,

     G                           C
I've had my share of heartaches, love is still alive.
[Chorus]
C             G                F               C
Love is muddy water, you can't see the rocks below,

C                 G                  F               C
love don't always take you where you think you wanna go.

      C               G             F                 C
There ain't no way of knowing which way the tide will flow,

F             C          G              (F)
love is muddy water, you have to take it slow.
[Interlude] | F | C | F | G | [Verse 2]
    C                                 F
Somehow I miss the mark, then hit the shallow and run aground

    G                                      C
and sometimes love it starts to fade, it's lost and can't be found.

 C                                   F
Upon the storms and rocky shores sometimes it's hard to steer,

       G                                     C
you'll find the love you're looking for when muddy waters clear.
[End-Chorus] (Repeat And Fade Out)
          C             G                F               C
You know: love is muddy water, you can't see the rocks below,

    C                 G                  F                C
and love don't always take you where you think you wannna go.

      C               G             F                 C
There ain't no way of knowing which was the tide will flow,

F             C          G               F
love is muddy water, you have to take it slow.
