I was asked to do Dirk Powell's Waterbound but this time out of double C tuning .. I am doing it at the second fret or aDADE .. By the end of the song it had gone a little out of tune .. Sorry .. I love this one and have done it in many many tunings just because it is so open to interpretation .. All the best to everyone here ...
I went out late one night,
The moon and stars were shining bright
A storm come up and the trees come down,
I tell you boys I was waterbound
Waterbound on a stranger's shore
River rising to my door
carried my home to the field below
I'm water bound, nowhere to go.
Carved my name on an old barn wall
Or no-one would know I was there at all
Stable's dry on a winter's night
If you turn your head you can see the light.
Black cat crawling on an old box car
A rusty door and a falling star
Aint got no dime in my nation sack
I'm waterbound and I can't get back
It's I'm going and I won't be back
If you don't believe me count my tracks
The river's long and the river's wide
I'll meet you boys on the other side
So say my name and don't forget
The water still aint got me yet
Ain't nothing but I'm bound to roam
I'm waterbound and I can't get home
