Hole In the River Lyrics & Tabs by Darden Smith
Hole In the River
guitar chords lyrics
There's a house on fire across town today
the neighborhood's a' glowing in the beautiful light
Somebody's life just went up in flames
set of saucers and the picture frames
embers turn to ashes to mud in tomorrow's rain
I heard the sirens calling like a pack of hounds
And I crawled up on the roof to look around
The flames were closer than I thought
Somebody I know just as likely as not
And embers turn to ashes right before your very nose
There's a hole in the river I'll jump through
Any hole in the river to make it back to you
Well now a careless flame and a faulty wire
It's been the cause of many a house on fire
Starts out slow and it spreads all around
Well now a careless flame and a faulty wire
It's been the cause of many a house on fire
Starts out slow and it spreads all around
Floors give way and the walls come down
Embers turn to ashes, scatter on tomorrow's wind
There's a hole in the river I'll jump through
Any hole in the river to make it back to you
There's a hole in the river I'll jump through
Any hole in the river to make it back to you
The ashes of a lifetime they scatter on the wind
Land upon the river, the river where we used to swim
I'm gonna crawl back on the roof while I've still got time
And look out over that horizon line
See if there's anything fresh and new
Out there for me and you
And I'll try to find the road to get there straight and true
There's a hole in the river I'll jump through
Any hole in the river to make it back to you
Hole in the river I'll jump through
Any hole in the river to make it back to you
Make it back to you
Make it back to you
Back to you
