Down Here Where I Am

Blaze Foley


Tom: Am

Am                      Dm
The river's overflowin'
Am      E7        Am
Down here where I am
Am                  Dm
The rain keeps on pouring
Am        E7     Am
I can't get into town

[Verse 1]

Am                      Dm
I think I may start walkin'
Am      E7        Am
Before the morning comes
Am                  Dm
And I'll be there tomorrow
  Am      E7     Am
With my chosen one

[Verse 2]
Am                      Dm
The miles dont seem too many
Am      E7        Am
thinkin of your charms
Am                  Dm
And pleasures unlike any
Am      E7        Am
wrapped up in your arms

[Chorus]

Am                      Dm
The river's overflowin'
Am      E7        Am
Down here where I am
Am                  Dm
The rain keeps on pouring
  Am      E7     Am
I can't get into town
