Eric Clapton – River Of Tears (Ukulele)

D                            C
It's three miles to the river that would carry me away,

Em                               D
and two miles to the dusty street that I saw you on today,

D                                C
It's four miles to my lonely room where I'm gonna hide my face,

Em                                       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?

Em
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?

D                                     C
All I know is since you've been gone, feel like I'm drowning

                       D
Drowning in a river of tears

C
Drowning in a river

Em                      D                      D
Feel like I'm drowning, drowning in a river of tears

D                                     C
In three more days, I leave this town, in disappear without a trace,

Em                                D
a year from now maybe settle down, where no one knows my face,

D                                 C
I wish that I could hold you one more time to ease the pain,

Em                                D
But my times run out and I got to go, got to run away again

Em
Still I catch myself thinking 

Em
one day I'll find my way back here

D                                     C
And you'll save me from drowning,

                       D
Drowning in a river of tears

C
Drowning in a river

Em                      D                      D
Feel like I'm drowning, drowning in a river of tears
