Me and my friends drove down to the riverside
E
With a half case of beer and a couple bottles of wine
D A E
And the rain started to fall
D A D A E
We tipped our bottles and the river overflowed
A D A D
Floodwater, carry me away
A D E
Take my mind to another place
A D A D
Drown my sorrow, kill my fear
A D B E
Floodwater, take me far away from here
Guitars ringin', hazy smoke filled room
People swayin', two-step drunken fools
And it looks like stormy weather
Emptied my glass, and everything got better
Chorus
Far away from the deep blue Texas skies
The Red River creature tried to steal away my mind
But the way, the truth and the light
Would not forsake the one for 99
Chorus
