VERSE 1

Am
Have you heard my story, Its all over town
           E 	  	  	  	  	    Am
I had the love of a real fine girl and I let her down
Am
She loved and she trusted, I could not be true
 	   E    	  	  	  	  	  	     Am
Now I’m drowning in a river of love, I don’t know what I’ll do
          D 	 C     Am 	            E
I paid a real high price for my wandering eye
  	 D 	   C 	    Am 	  	         	   E
It’s a priceless piece of advice before all goes dry

CHORUS

Am
Water your own yard

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



Am
Water your own yard 
           E 	  	  	  	  	  	 Am
When the other mans grass looks greener water your own yard

VERSE 2

I started slippin, started messin’ round after dark
She called and told me come on over, showed me right where to park
And it was then that I stumbled
And it was then that I fell
I threw everything that I own into the wishing well
I paid a real high price for my wandering eye
It’s a priceless piece of advice before your well goes dry

CHORUS

VERSE 3

I wouldn’t listen, I just couldn’t conceive
And I’m paying no attention to love reaching out for me
I went looking for greener grass, with no water in my well
Now I’m sitting on a bottle with a bucket and a story to tell
I paid a real high price for my wandering eye
It’s a priceless piece of advice before your well goes dry
