Porter Wagoner - Cold Dark Waters Chords

C                              G7         C
In tomorrow's newspaper you'll read about me 

                                G7
But they won't tell the story I know 

    C                   F
For they'll only say he plunged yesterday 

       C         G7     C 
To the cold dark waters below
 

  F                        C 
I guess it all started the day we first met

                                G7
You promised that you'd love me so 

    C                        F
And I never thought it would end in regret
 
       C         G7     C
In the cold dark waters below 
 

                             G7           C  
In a moment I'll ride on the drift of the tide 

                                 G7
And I hope your conscience hurts so 

        C                             F
All the tears that I've cried will be easy to hide
 
       C         G7     C   
In the cold dark waters below 


    F                      C
Now I hear them running to try and stop me 

                                  G7
They're shouting oh don't let him go 

    C                          F
But it's far too late and I'll soon meet my fate 

       C         G7     C 
In the cold dark waters below
 

F      C         G7     C 
In the cold dark waters below
