~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE HARD WAY - Sounds like the original, if you're able to do it...
Same as the easy way, with the following changes:

0x6200  E
X46200  C#m

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE BEST WAY - Put a 345- partial capo on the second fret. This is
how I play it. (I think Derek actually does it tuned DGDGAD, capo 2.)
Sounds like the original AND is easy to play.  Same picking pattern:

ox40oo  E    |  # = any string fingered # frets above the capo
x240oo  C#m  |  0 = capoed string not fingered
x022oo  B    |  o = uncapoed string not fingered
3x00oo  A    |  c = uncapoed string fingered at same fret as the capo
2x4222  G#m  |  x = any string not played
cx00oo  F#m

VERSE 1:
Water water everywhere
And I complain about my thirst
The prescription's in my hand
While the pain I curse

CHORUS:
I know the longer
I know the harder
The walk will be
With my callused feet
And my too tender knees

VERSE 2:
Stumbled upon the truth
Wished it'd get out of my way
When I see the light
I pull down the shade

REPEAT CHORUS

GUITAR SOLO

BRIDGE:
If I were as smart as Christopher
I'd find a closet
If I were as weak as Samson was
I'd make a prophet

REPEAT CHORUS (with derek)

REPEAT CHORUS (derek overlapping)
I know the longer
     (with my callused feet)
I know the harder
     (and my too tender knees)
The walk will be
     (I know the longer)
With my callused feet
     (I know the harder the walk)
And my too tender knees
