Ernest Tubb - Driftwood On The River guitar chord

Driftwood On The River

by Ernst Tubb

A E7

I'm just drift-wood on the river floating down the tide

A

I don't care where this old river, carries me

D

I keep drifting just because my heart is broken inside

E7 A

And I'm tired of wishing for what can not be

E7

I may meet some bit of drift-wood lost same as I

A

Share a hand shake and a tender tear or two

D

But It's always good luck now we got to say good-bye

E7 A

I must wander on to keep my ron-da-voo

E7

Though I drift through town and city I can never stay

A

For I find no place to call my home sweet home

D

I don't ask for help or pitty I just go my way

E7 A

All I'm praying for is peace to dream alone

E7

I'm just drift-wood on the river and I'm drifting on

A

Till this weary river meets the deep blue sea

D

Where the deep blue sea may help me to forget some-one

E7 A

Yes the careless one who has forgotton me

E7

In my heart I don't feel bitter over what has been

A

I feel sorry for the one I must forget

D

And instead of being some-one with the world to win

E7 A

I'm just drift-wood on the river of regret
