D 
All night long I've been riding riding 
        A                               Em 
I should have been there by now 
But these old county roads 
Got a lot of deep holes 
            G                      D 
And the rain keeps pouring down 
     D   
The bridge is washed out and the rising rising 
 A                                Em 
Waters of the river rush by 
And I'm up to my fenders in mud 
And to my witness above 
              D 
I'm really stuck this time 

               G 
I've got a gold heart locket on a silver chain 
                D 
Clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain 
            Em 
And the only road back home again Is all but washed away 
G 
I'm going to cross that river tonight 
        D 
No matter what it takes  
                             A 
Although I might die trying 
     F#m                   Em 
My true love will remain 
        G                                        D A Em G D 
In a gold heart locket on a silver chain 

Open it up and she's lovely lovely 
Eyes of hazel green 
But I close it up fast  
Because the rain gets past 
And lays a tear down on her cheek 
I promised her once that I would never ever 
Break her heart again 
So lord take me there in a silent prayer 
And her locket in my hand 
  
     Em 
The last thing I remember  
        D 
I was fearing for my life 
           Em 
She was calling out my name  
            G 
From over on the other side 
 G 
I reached out to hold her 
                                        D 
But the break was just too strong 
           A 
Now the silence just gets colder 
          G 
As the river rages on 

D 
All night long I've been riding riding 
        A                               Em

But these old county roads 
Got a lot of deep holes 
            G                      D

     F#m                   Em
