F#
It's three miles to the river
B
That would carry me away,
G#m7
And two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.
F#
It's four miles to my lonely room
B
Where I will hide my face,
G#m7
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
E♭m
Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
G#7
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
C#
All I know is, since you've been gone
B
I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feel like I'm drowning,
Drowning in a river.
F#/F#/B/B/G#m7/G#m7/C#7sus4/C#7
F#
In three more days, I'll leave this town
B
And disappear without a trace.
G#m7
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
F#
I wish that I could hold you
B
One more time to ease the pain,
G#m7
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got t o run away again.
E♭m
Still I catch myself thinking,
G#7
One day I'll find my way back here.
C#
You'll save me from drowning,
B
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 l ong must this go on?
F#/F#/B/B/G#m7/G#m7/C#7sus4/C#7
B
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
