_ _ _ I went down to the river, flowing out onto the sea, on my way to the ocean, let the spirit swallow me.
[C] I got low [Bbm] down in the water, [Eb] I let the current [F] guide my boat.
[C] I got [Bb] nine kinds of [F] trouble, I'm just [Bb] trying to find [Cm] my way.
[C] _
_ _ _ _ [D] [Cm] Over twenty some years [B] of living, and [Eb] a thousand [Em] wasted [F] days, [Cm] I have loved [Bb] a lot of [Em] women,
but [F] many times I've gone wrong.

[Cm] They keep telling [Bb] me that I'm just [F] a baby, baby, why do I [Bb] feel [Cm] so old?

This is [F] the verge of a breakthrough, [Eb] it's a fine line [G] that cannot be [Cm] pedaled, and I felt
like [F] a river run dry, but [Eb] I don't know where all of [G] the rain water went.
[Cm] And I believed we [F] were all dead or dying, [Eb] but I see [G] different in the blue light.
There is [Cm] no such [F] thing as a dawn or [Eb] a dusk, it's daylight [G] until it is night.
You gotta [Am] [F] fight in the deep end, you gotta [Eb] [G] run and see the world.
You gotta [F] rage against the dying of the [Eb] light, live for the [G] moment that's left.
You [Bb] gotta [F] fight against the deep end, [Eb] you gotta run [G] and see the world.
You gotta [Cm] rage [F] against the dying of the [Eb] light, live for the [G] moment that's left.
There [Ab] is no such thing as a dying [Cm] man, we're alive to the moment we are dead.
[Ab] And a drowning man is just a living [G] man who has run out of his last bit of breath.
