[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am F
He'd been there all happy hour, spinning a two-year chip on the counter
C G
I picked the stool to his left and asked him, "What's that in your hand?"
Am F
He said, "It's an all-night conversation 'bout a man too gone for saving
C G
Who traded in everything he loved for a buzz that didn't love him"
Am F
He said, "Only light I saw was neon in a dive off of west end
C
I was all out of hope at the end of my rope
G
I knew it was sink or swim, I was
[Chorus]
Am
Dead in the water, drowning in bourbon
F
I was a goner, that's when I heard Him
C G
Whisper to my soul at 2:00 a.m., I said, Amen
Am7
I poured out the bottle, found something stronger
F
When I didn't wanna live any longer
C G
I crawled down to that muddy riverside
F
Dead in the water
G Am F C G
And I walked out alive"
[Verse 2]
Am F
He said, "I come back here to remember who I was before that river
C G
Washed away the hell that held me down so long, oh
Am F
Now I share my testimony with the whiskey bent and the lonely
C
Who think that they don't have a prayer
G
Lord knows I've been there"
