Wells The Expendables
The other version isn't necessarily wrong . . . I just think it's better this way.
Standard tuning. Capo 3. All relative.

[E]Can I draw some w[A]ater babe
[E]From your w[A]ell
[E]Can I draw some w[A]ater baby

Chorus
Rap-thing . . . (same as main riff/verse)
Yeah, I want to hold you
squeeze you
Love you need you
Feel you touch you
Hear you say
Reaching me, you see? (not sure about that one)
Everywhere I turn
I need to know
Are you gonna wait
And be there when I get home
I'm crossing the break
A thousand miles of foam
If it's worth your wait
And the nights alone
So far from home
Girl you've grown
And changed so much
I love it all
What you were
And who you are
And who you'll be
Only time will tell
But your wishing well is calling me
This water eased my pain and hurt
And only you can quench my thirst
So I'm working, I'm working
To bring it home
Come on girl
Keep holding on
Verse 3:
[E]I wish that [A]I could sit
[E]In your garden aga[A]in
[E]And watch the [A]stars at night
[E]From your [A]bed
