D G
You told me you don't love me when you walked out the door
A7 D
I stood there feelin' lonely then the tears began to pour
D7 G
What else could I do, I'd never felt like that before
A7 D
So I cried an ol' blue river in the middle of the floor
[CHORUS]
G
Now I'm up to my ears in tears
A7 D
I'm cryin' night and day since you went away
D7 G
The things you used to say Honey, I no longer hear
A7
That water's cold and clear, I'm drownin' for you dear
D
Up to my ears in tears.
[VERSE 2]
G
Well, I found some old love letters you wrote me years ago
A7 D
But the words all ran together when the tears began to flow
D7 G
Cause you left that water runnin' now it's got no where to go
A7 D
If I can't wash away your mem'ry, guess I'll just go under slow REPEAT CHORUS
A7
The water's cold and clear I'm drownin' for you dear
D
Up to my ears in tears
