C C/B Am
Oh country down
G C
Where I found my proving ground
C C/B Am
All along the floodline
G C
Wheels are turning around
G C
The hills roll out like centuries
G C
Pass by without a sound
G F Am G
Just a mile outside of town
C C/B Am
Downriverbound
G C
Where the limit to your sky fell down
C C/B Am
A plot against your will
G C
Is furrowed into your brow
G C
Against your better judgment
G C
It's all behind you now
G F Am G
Just a mile outside of town
D F
What's the use in being found
Am G
When you can lose yourself in some good ground?
D F
In the weeds hiding downriver right next door
Am
There's no frame around your picture
G
Just a view through my back door
C C/B Am
Time evermore
G C
You just found what you're looking for
C C/B Am G C
A tiger rose growing through your prison door
G C G C
Reaching for sunlight, can't see it anymore
G F Am G
Just a mile from my back door
D F
You could wake up on a lifeboat 'neath the sun
Am
On a ladder up to the sky
G
You're standing on the lowest rung
D F
Holding a lifeline, using my best defense
Am G
Running in the undertow I couldn't fight against
C C/B Am
Oh lay me down
G C
Where we found my proving ground
C C/B Am
All along the floodline
G C
Waves are turning around
G C
The hills roll out like centuries
G C
Pass by without a sound
G F Am G
Just a mile outside of town
