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
