G＃
It's three miles to the river
C＃
That would carry me away,
B♭m7
And two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.
G＃
It's four miles to my lonely room
C＃
Where I will hide my face,
B♭m7
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
Fm
Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
B♭7
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
E♭
All I know is, since you've been gone
C＃
I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Dr owning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feel like I'm drowning,
Drowning in a river.

G＃
In three more days, I'll leave this town
C＃
And disappear without a trace.
B♭m7
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
G＃
I wish that I could hold you
C＃
One more time to ease the pain,
B♭m7
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got t o run away again.
Fm
Still I catch myself thinking,
B♭7
One day I'll find my way back here.
E♭
You'll save me from drowning,
C＃
Drowning in a river,
Dr owning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how l ong must this go on?
G＃／G＃／C＃／C＃／B♭m7／B♭m7／E♭7sus4／E♭7
C＃
Drowning in a river,
Dr owning in a river of tears.
