Everythings Turning To White

G                                 
Late on a Friday my husband went 
        C           G
up to the mountains with 3 friends
G                                 
They took provisions and bottles 
                 C                 
of bourbon to last them all through
     G
 the weekend
Em        G                      
One hundred miles they drove just
Em                  C
 to fish in a stream
C      G         C     D       
There's so much water so close 
      G              C     G
to home


When they arrived it was cold and 
dark, they set up they're camp 
quickly
Warmed up with whisky they walked to
 the river where the water flowed by
 star clean
In the moonlight they saw the body, 
of a girl floating face down
There's so much water so close to 
home

Refrão -------------
   C              G
As he holds me know I'm pretending
   C              D
It feels like i'm frozen inside
            C        G     
And behind my eyes, my daily 
       C       G
disguise
C       D            G
Everything's turning to white
-------------------- 




It was too hard to tell how long 
she's been dead
The water was that close to freezing
But one things for sure, the girl 
hadn't died very well to judge from 
the bruising
They stood there above her all 
thinking, the same thoughts at the 
same time
There's so much water so close to 
home

So here's what they did, they 
carried her downstream ,
between two  rocks they gently 
wedged her
After all it was late they had come 
a long way well the girl she was 
going nowhere
They stayed up there fishing for two
 days, they reported when they came 
back down
There's so much water so close to 
home

Chorus

The newspapers said the girl had 
been stragled to death, and also 
molested
On the day of the funeral, the radio
 reported that a young man had been 
arrested
I went to the service a stranger, I 
drove past the lake out of town
There's so much water, So close to 
home
