[Intro]
A D A E (x4)
[Verse]
A E F#m
I remember the day it came
E F#m A E
Washed everything in a humbling blue
A E F#m
Highways and prairies the same
E F#m A E
Drowned in the flood like the prayers we knew
A E F#m
And I lost all track of my time
E F#m A E
In some other current much faster than mine
A E F#m
It took down the trees by the river
E F#m E A
Like advice that would never be given
D A E
Laid back down with my eyes closed
A D A E
Let all my air out of my nose
A D A E
Let all my dirt melt to glorious mud
A D A E
Smiled for a while six feet under the flood
[Verse]
A E F#m
And I couldn't find my boots
E F#m A E
The water, it was knee-high
A E F#m
So I laid in my bed
E F#m A E
And stared out my window at the dry sky
A E F#m
And I woke up underneath
E F#m A E
All that was humbled in blue
A E F#m
Realized I was more
E F#m A E
More comfortable than my mother's stew
