chords by: [email protected] Kathy Mattea - Standing Knee Deep in a River (Dying of Thirst) Intro - (verse 1) Friends I could count on I could count on one hand, with a leftover finger or two, I took 'em for granted, let 'em all slip away, Now where they are I wish I knew, They roll by, just like water and I guess we never learn Go through life, parched and empty standin' knee deep in a river and dyin' of thirst (verse 2) Sometimes I remember, sweethearts I've known, Some I've forgotten I suppose, One or two still linger, oh and I wonder now, why I ever let them go, They roll by, just like water, and I guess we never learn, Go through life, parched and empty, standin' knee deep in a river, and dyin' of thirst, -----------> up 1/2 step<-------------- (verse 3) So the sidewalk is crowded, the city goes by, and I rush through another day, and a world full of strangers, turn their eyes to me, but I just look the other way, (chorus) They roll by just like water, and I guess we never learn, Go through life, parched and empty, standin' knee deep in a river, and dyin' of thirst, They roll by just like water, and I guess we never learn, Go through life, parched and empty, standin' knee deep in a river, and dyin' of thirst,
