Don't Go Near The Water Ukulele tab

	  Key of G 
 
 
Your (G) mamma used to worry 'bout that big muddy river 
(F) Honey, (C) do you (D) remember 
You let the (G) screen door slam when you stepped off the front porch 
You heard your mamma callin' don't be late 
(F) I'd hear your daddy holler, (C) "Son, she's my honey (G) daughter" 
You'd stick your (F) nose in the honeysuckle down by the gate 
I can (C) still hear your mama calling, "don't go near the (G) water" 
 
We (G) fell right (F) in way (C) over our (F) heads 
But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F) 
In (G) love - in (F) deep - so (C) young and (F) sweet 
And the (D) nights got hotter and (D7) hotter 
We were (G) sure 'nuff (F) gettin' our (C) feet wet, (F) mama 
But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water 
 
You hear the (G) rockin' chair squeakin' when you stepped off the back steps 
Mama waitin' like a grizzley bear 
(F) Had to get the honeysuck(C)le out of your (G) hair 
But, in the (F) morning light, you looked her right in the eye 
It (C) wasn't a lie, we didn't go near the (G) water 
 
We (G) fell right (F) in way (C) over our (F) heads 
But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F) 
In (G) love - in (F) deep - so (C) young and (F) sweet 
And the (D) nights got hotter and (D7) hotter 
We were (G) sure 'nuff (F) gettin' our (C) feet wet, (F) mama 
But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F) 
 
Your (G) mama used to worry 'bout that big muddy river 
(D) She shoulda worried 'bout (D7) me 
We were (G) sure 'nuff (F) gettin' our (C) feet wet, (F) mama 
But, we (G) didn't go (F) near the (C) water (F) 
(F) Didn't go (C) near the (G) water 
(F) Didn't go (C) near the water (G)
