River Of Tears chords by Eric Clapton

Chords with lyrics

C majorC  FF DmDm G+G
A minorAm DmDm G+G FF


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

in a river
            C majorC
Drowning in a river of tears
FF
Drowning in a river
DmDm           G+G           C majorC
Feel like I'm drowning, drowning in a river of tears

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