Muddy River

Verse 1

Fog rolled in off the river line

My boots sink slow in the muddy spine

I been walking since the rooster cried

Got a pocket full of reasons why

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know where I'm bound to go

But the ground keeps pulling me below

Chorus

Muddy river take my hand tonight

Show me where the dark meets the light

I been sinking but I'm standing tall

Muddy river catch me when I fall

Verse 2

Mama warned me 'bout the turning tide

Said the devil loves a tangled mind

I seen faces in the smoke and steam

Half of waking half a fever dream

Pre-Chorus

And the moon is wearing thin and pale

But your whisper bends that iron rail

Chorus

Muddy river take my hand tonight

Show me where the dark meets the light

I been sinking but I'm standing tall

Muddy river catch me when I fall

Bridge

Stones and rattlesnakes and rusty chain

Every scar I got spells out your name

Come on river wash the years away

Let the current sing the words I can't say

Chorus

Muddy river take my hand tonight

Show me where the dark meets the light

I been sinking but I'm standing tall

Muddy river catch me when I fall
