[Intro 1]
[G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Stop all this [G]talk,
turn off [C]the telephone[G]
Open up another bottle,
[C]send those people hom[Bm]e
Let it get real quiet,
[C]turn that lamp way down low
I'm gon[G]na float [C]down
this [G]river of tears
[C][G]

[Verse 2]
I remember how we [C]spoke
on the days he was [G]dry
Even now that he's [C]gone he can
make a woman [Bm]cry
But he saw through [C]me
deaf dumb and blind
He [G]knew his [C]way down this [G]river
of tears
[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 3]
"Dashed hopes and best
[C]intentions" people [G]say
He could sit [C]and drink the way
a monk could [Bm]pray
So grab that silver flask,
[C]pour yourself another glass and
[G]Watch me rag[C]e down this
river [G]of tears
[Cm]

[Verse 4]
Turn out the stars now,
[G]darken every one[Cm]
Watch [G]the clouds cover that
big yellow [Cm]moon
Close the blinds,
[G]mut[D]e the sun[Em][D][Am]
There's [C]nowhere left to [G]run[C]
[G]

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 5]
Turn [Cm]out the stars now,
[G]darken every one[Cm]
Watch the clouds [G]cover [C]that
big yel[G]low [Cm]moon
Close the blinds,
[G]mut[D]e the sun[Em][D][C][Am]
There ain't [C]nowhere left to run
There ain't nowhere left [G]to run

[Verse 6]
Picked up that [G]old [C]decanter
That he used to drink [G]from
Turned on his ste[C]reo
Just to hear it [Bm]hum
Daddy, I'm gonna wrap myself in blanket
[C]s and listen to you sing
And I'm goin' [G]to flow [C]down this [G]river of tears
