It's [C] three miles to the river
That would [F] carry me away,
And [Dm] two miles to the dusty street
That I [G7] saw you on today.
It's four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
[Am] Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
[D7] Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
[G] All I know is, since you've been gone
[F] I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of [C] tears.
Drowning in a [F] river.
Feel like I'm [Dm] drowning,
Drowning in a [G7] river.
In three more days, I'll leave this town
And disappear without a trace.
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.
Still I catch myself thinking,
One day I'll find my way back here.
You'll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
That would [F] carry me away,
And [Dm] two miles to the dusty street
That I [G7] saw you on today.
It's four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
[Am] Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
[D7] Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
[G] All I know is, since you've been gone
[F] I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of [C] tears.
Drowning in a [F] river.
Feel like I'm [Dm] drowning,
Drowning in a [G7] river.
In three more days, I'll leave this town
And disappear without a trace.
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.
Still I catch myself thinking,
One day I'll find my way back here.
You'll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
