Floodwater
By Reckless Kelly
Written By Chris Schleske
[E]Me and my friends drove down to the riverside
[E]With a half case of beer and a couple bottles of wine
And the [D]rain [A]started to [E]fall
We [D]tipped our [A]bottles and the [D]river [A]over[E]flowed
Chorus:
[A]Flood[D]water, carry [A]me a[D]way
[A]Take my [D]mind to a[E]nother place
[A]Drown my [D]sorrow, [A]kill my [D]fear
[A]Flood[D]water, take me[B] far away from here[E]
Guitars ringin', hazy smoke filled room
People swayin', two-step drunken fools
And it looks like stormy weather
Emptied my glass, and everything got better
Chorus
Far away from the deep blue Texas skies
The Red River creature tried to steal away my mind
But the way, the truth and the light
Would not forsake the one for 99
Chorus
