Capo at 1st Fret
Chorus
Am7 G F7 E
Wade in the wa-ter;
Am7 G F7 E
Wade in the water, children,
Am7 G F7 E
Wade in the wa-ter;
Am7 E
God's gonna trouble the water.
Verse
Am7 G F7 E
Who's that young girl dressed in red?
Am7 G F7 E
Wade in the wa-ter;
Am7 G F7 E
Must be the children that Moses led,
Am7 E
God's gonna trouble the water.
You can make Wade in the Water a little more interesting by changing
the final E chord at the end of each verse and chorus into an Eadd#9.
To do this, throw in an F# (that's the sharp ninth) - play it
on the second fret of your guitar's top E string (or the third fret
if you've got your capo at the first fret).
Lyrics
Wade in the water;
Wade in the water, children,
Wade, in the water;
God's gonna trouble the water.
Who's that young girl dressed in red?
Wade in the water;
Must be the children that Moses led,
God's gonna trouble the water.
Wade in the water;
Wade in the water, children,
Wade, in the water;
God's gonna trouble the water.
Who's that young girl dressed in white?
Wade in the water;
Must be the children of the Israelite,
Oh, God's gonna trouble the water.
Wade in the water;
Wade in the water, children,
Wade, in the water;
God's gonna trouble the water.
Who's that young girl dressed in blue?
Wade in the water;
Must be the children that's coming through;
God's gonna trouble the water.
Wade in the water;
Wade in the water, children,
Wade, in the water;
God's gonna trouble the water.
You don't believe I've been redeemed;
Wade in the water;
Just see the holy ghost looking for me -
God's gonna trouble the water.
Wade in the water;
Wade in the water, children,
Wade, in the water;
God's gonna trouble the water.
