[Verse 1]
(muted stuming for this section)
I went down to the river
flowing out unto the sea
on my way to the ocean
let the spirit swallow me.
Am G
I got low down in the water
C D
I let the current guide my bones
Am G
Ive got nine kinds of trouble
D
Im just trying to find my way home.
(Riff)
[Verse 2]
Am G
Over twenty-some years of living
C D
and a thousand wasted days
Am G
I have loved a lot of women
D
Many times Ive gone wrong ways
Am G
And I came down to the water
C D
For a dip, To cleanse my soul.
Am G
They keep telling me that Im just a babe
D
But baby, why do I feel so old?....
[Instrumental]
Am - G - C D
[Pre-Chorus]
Am D
This is the verge of a breakthrough
C E
its a fine line that cannot be bent
Am D
and I felt like I river run dry
C E
but I dont know where all of the rainwater went
Am D
And I believed we were all dead or dying
C E
but I see different in the blue light
Am D
there is no such thing as a dawn or a dusk
C E
it is daylight until it is night
[Chorus]
Am D
Youve got to fight through the dimming
C E
Youve got to run into the west
Am D
Youve go to rage against the dying of the light
C E
Live for the moment thats left
Am D
Youve got to fight through the dimming
C E
Youve got to run into the west
Am D
Youve go to rage against the dying of the light
C E
Live for the moment thats left
[Post-Chorus]
F
Cause there is no such thing as a dying man
Am
Were alive till the moment were dead
F
and a drowning man is just a living man
E
Who hasnt run out of his last bit of breath.
[Instrumental]
F - Am - F - Am

[Verse 3]
Am G
I went down to the river
C D
flowing out unto the sea
Am G
on my way to the ocean
D
let the spirit swallow me.
Am G
I got low down in the water
C D
I let the current guide my bones
Am G
Ive got nine kinds of trouble
D Am-G-C-D
Im just trying to find my way home.....
Am-G-C-D or Riff (x3)
Find my way home....
Finish on Am
