[VERSE]
[E]All night long I've been riding riding, I
should have been there by [B]now, but these
[F#m]old county roads got a lot of deep holes and the
[A]rain keeps pouring [E]down
[E]the bridge is washed out and the rising rising
waters of the river rush [B]by and I'm
[F#m]up to my fenders in mud and to my witness above
[A]I'm really stuck this [E]time
[CHORUS]
I've got a
[A]gold heart locket on a silver chain
[E]clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain and the
[B]only road back home again is
[F#m]all but washed away
[A]I'm going to cross that river tonight no
[E]matter what it takes although I might die
[B]trying my true love will [F#m]remain in a
[A]gold heart locket on a [B]silver [E]chain
[VERSE]
[E]open it up and she's lovely lovely
eyes of hazel [B]green, but I
[F#m]close it up fast because the rain gets past and lays a
[A]tear down on her [E]cheek
[E]I promised her once that I would never ever
break her heart [B]again, so
[F#m]Lord take me there, in a silent prayer, with her
[A]locket in my [E]hand
[BRIDGE]
[F#m]the last thing I remember I was
[A]fearing for my [E]life. She was
[F#m]calling out my name from over
[A]on the other [E]side.
[F#m]I reached out to hold her but the
[A]break was just too [E]strong. Now the
[B]silence just gets colder as the
[F#m]river rages [E]on
