INTRO 
 
G             
Seems everywhere I look these days,  
 
There's people walking in a daze. 
 
Scared to look you in the eye,  
                 
Scared you're high, scared to try, 
  Csus           C                         G     
I wonder why......must be something in the water. 
 
 
     G 
Some kids got on the train last night, 
 
Started lookin' for a fight. 
 
No-one had a word to say,  
                               Csus         C 
Just turned away, hell I feel ashamed today. 
                               G 
It's gotta be something in the water. 
 
        Em                         C 
You can see it all around, you can feel it on the wind. 
        Em                          D 
You can hear it in the sound of the waves crashing in. 
       Em                                C 
Do you dare to tread the water, take the Devil by the hand. 
                          G             D      G 
Would you look him in the eye and see a friend?  
 
 
 
G 
Walkin' past a TV store,  
 
What shocked me more than what I saw? 
 
Some guy is gettin' paid somewhere, 
                                    Csus         C 
To dream up that, my entertainment, do you care? 
                                G 
Just what are we putting in the water? 
 
 
       G 
Do you ever stop to wonder why,  
 
When conscience looks you in the eye. 
 
You say you've gotta call it off, 
                                      Csus        C 
But tell ourselves it must be someone elses fault. 
                                  G 
Just what are they putting in the water?

Eb                         F 
But I see a light, I see a better day. 
              Eb                              F 
Where we will all turn and fight and not just run away. 
       Eb                            F 
We can turn this tide, side by side, 
                         G 
If we can only clear the water. 
Eb                                F 
But its gonna take more than just you and me, 
Eb                     F 
Before this river runs clean and free. 
        Eb                              F 
But the damage that we've done can be undone, 
                                G 
So lets just stop and clear the water.
