Cold Dark Waters Chords & Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

[C]In tomorrow's newspaper you'll [G7]read about [C]me

But they won't tell the story I [G7]know

For [C]they'll only say he [F]plunged yesterday

To the [C]cold dark [G7]waters [C]below

I [F]guess it all started the [C]day we first met

You promised that you'd love me [G7]so

And [C]I never thought it would [F]end in regret

In the [C]cold dark [G7]waters [C]below

In a moment I'll ride on the [G7]drift of the [C]tide

And I hope your conscience hurts [G7]so

All the [C]tears that I've cried will be [F]easy to hide

In the [C]cold dark [G7]waters [C]below

Now [F]I hear them running to [C]try and stop me

They're shouting oh don't let him [G7]go

But [C]it's far too late and I'll [F]soon meet my fate

In the [C]cold dark [G7]waters [C]below

[F]In the [C]cold dark [G7]waters [C]below
