[Verse 1]
Em G
They never built a bridge here
Bm C
You just drive through the water
Em G
Hope once you get there
Bm C
It don't rain up a river
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C G
Me I hope it pours
Bm D
And forgiveness been delivered
[Chorus]
Em G
Frio river won't you flood
D C
And wash my sins away
Em G D
Let'em roll on down to Corpus Christi bay
Em G
I've been drug out through the mud
D C
Stripped of all my faith
Em G D
I could use an excuse to stay another day
[Instrumental]
Em G Bm C
[Verse 2]
Em G
It Sounded like a freight train
Bm C
A ten foot wall of water
Em G
Swept away everything
Bm C
The canyon had to offer
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C G
And me I’m on the bank
Bm D
Kneeling at the alter
[Chorus]
Em G
Frio river won't you flood
D C
And wash my sins away
Em G D
Let'em roll on down to Corpus Christi bay
Em G
I've been drug out through the mud
D C
Stripped of all my faith
Em G D
I could use an excuse to stay another day
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
C
It taught me to swim
G
And it taught me to love
D C
It’s where I first saw the stars above
C G
Kept me cool on those august days
D Am
Can you just do me one more thing
[Chorus]
Em G
Frio river won't you flood
D C
And wash my sins away
Em G D
Let'em roll on down to Corpus Christi bay
Em G
I've been drug out through the mud
D C
Stripped of all my faith
Em G D
I could use an excuse to stay another day
