C          Cmaj7  Am
Oh country down 
G                           C
Where I found my proving ground 
C           Cmaj7  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       Cmaj7  Am
Downriverbound 
G                                  C
Where the limit to your sky fell down 
C           Cmaj7  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        Cmaj7  Am
Time evermore 
G                                     C
You just found what you're looking for 
C          Cmaj7  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      Cmaj7  Am
Oh lay me down 
G                             C
Where we found my proving ground 
C           Cmaj7  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
