Intro: E C D A E
 
E C D A E
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. No relief from the risin' tide.
 
E C D
Somethin' in the way of the world has changed, broken apart and
 
E
rearranged.
 
 
Chorus:
E G D A E
And the river's risin'. Rain keeps pourin' down.
 
 
E G D A E
And the river's risin'. Oh, take me to a higher ground.
 
 
 
 
E C
Not too little and much too late.
 
D A E
Courting disaster and tempting fate.
 
E C D A E
Goin' against all natural laws, putting effect before the cause.
 
 
Chorus
 
E C
When will I see the sun shine again?
 
D A E
When will this darkness come to an end?
 
 
E C
Watchin' and waitin', the flood waters rise,
 
D A E
I can't believe what's before my eyes.
 
Chorus
