C F It's three miles to the river that would carry me away, Dm7 And two miles to the dusty street Gsus4 G that I saw you on today, C F It's four miles to my lonely room where I'm gonna hide my face, Dm7 And about half a mile to the downtown bar Gsus4 G that I ran from in disgrace Chorus: Am Lord how long have I got to keep on running? D9 Seven hours, seven days or seven years? G All I know is since you've been gone, F Feel like I'm drowning in a river C Drowning in a river of tears F Drowning in a river Dm7 Gsus4 G Feel like I'm drowning, drowning in a 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 Chorus: 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 Feel like I'm drowning Drowning in a river Lord, how long must it go on?
