[Verse 1]
C# F# F#sus4 F#
Back in the wood where it's good and the days are yeah long
C# F# F#sus4 F#
Well I saw me a child, she was wild like a lady going all wrong
C# F# F#sus4 F#
Dark as the night, she was right for a little conversation
C# F# F#sus4 F#
So I pulled her right in and she said she had some imagination
[Chorus]
G# G#6 G#
Black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F#
That's where I caught her
G# G#6 G#
Black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F#
Black swampy water
[Verse 2]
C# F# F#sus4 F#
We didn't speak, felt weak, got tangled up in her hair
C# F# F#sus4 F#
So we lay in the grass, what a gas, you can't know that you were there
C# F# F#sus4 F#
So then I let it all go, what a show was like blowing up a freight train
C# F# F#sus4 F#
Then around the world I would go like jumping on a jet plane
[Chorus]
G# G#6 G#
Black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F#
That's where I caught her
G# G#6 G#
Black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F#
Ooh, what I taught her, yeah

Well I saw me a child, she was wild like a lady going all wrong
[Chorus]

I'm in black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F#
Oh no, that's where I caught her

Black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F#
Ooh, all things that I taught her
[Chorus]

My, my, where I saw her

Black swampy water
F# F#sus4 F# G# F# G# F#
What I did when I caught her, yeah
