River Of Tears By Eric Clapton

G                            C
It's three miles to the river that would carry me away,
Am                               D
and two miles to the dusty street that I saw you on today,
G                                C
It's four miles to my lonely room where I'm gonna hide my face,
Am                                       D
and about half a mile to the downtown bar that I ran from in disgrace
Em
Lord how long have I got to keep on running?
Am
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
D                                     C
All I know is since you've been gone, feel like I'm drowning

in a river
                       G
Drowning in a river of tears
C
Drowning in a river
Am                      D                      G
Feel like I'm drowning, drowning in a river of tears

G                                     C
In three more days, I leave this town, in disappear without a trace,
Am                                D
a year from now maybe settle down, where no one knows my face,
G                                 C
I wish that I could hold you one more time to ease the pain,
Am                                D
But my times run out and I got to go, got to run away again
Em
Still I catch myself thinking
Am
one day I'll find my way back here
D                                     C
And you'll save me from drowning,
                       G
Drowning in a river of tears
C
Drowning in a river
Am                      D                      G
Feel like I'm drowning, drowning in a river of tears
