G                              GI've done a bad thing it's okay
G                                GI'm going down to the river today
       Cm                              CmAnd the river's gonna wash my sins away
                  G             GTil I'm born again tomorrow
DOh to get over my head
Cm                G             GMake me forget my sorrow

G                                GI'm going down to the river alone
G                                 GDon't tell mama and daddy I'm gone
Cm                                   CmAnd if they cry when I don't come home

       D                                     DI'd be living for the light like a good girl should
                   G'Cause a good girl should
