Intro: D Cadd9
[D]Way down at the bottom of the river
[Cadd9]There's a locket with a picture of me
[D]She drowned what I thought was forever
[Cadd9]She locked up our love and lost the key
[D]A friend of mine heard from a friend of hers
[Cadd9]She was workin' on last name number three
[D]There was a time I'd have relished those words
[Cadd9]But I'm not where I used to be
[G]Way down[D]
[G]Weighted down a[D]t the bottom
[G]I almost d[D]rown in a sha[Cadd9]llow dream
[G]A light shined d[D]own and l[G]ife was waiti[D]ng at the top when
[G]I let go of the p[D]ast that was dra[Cadd9]ggin me
Way down an Oklahoma highway
There's a cafe where they'll remember me
I broke down by a payphone in the hallway
Put my fist through a drywall sheet
I hit a wall trying to find some kinda way
To find some peace
Buried it all when I dug a grave for all the
Pain that was pulling me
Way down
Weighted down at the bottom
I almost drown in a shallow dream
A light shined down and life was waiting at the top when
I let go of the past that was dragging me
Way down
Way down
Way down, way down, way down, way down
