[Verse 1]
E                                     D A
 I don't know why I love her like I do
E                                  D A E
 All the changes you put me through     Take my money,
             D A
my cigarettes
E                              D
 I haven't seen the worst of it yet

[Pre-Chorus]
A      C            G       A
I wanna know can you tell me
  Dmaj7/A       E7#9
I love   to stay

[Chorus]
               E
Take me to the river,
drop me in the water
Take me to the river,
dip me in the water
                                E D A
Washing me down, washing me down

[Verse 2]
E                                    D A
 I don't know why you treat me so bad
E                                              D A
 Think of all the things that we could have had
E                                    D A
 Love is an ocean that I can't forget
E                                 D
 My sweet sixteen I would never regret

[Pre-Chorus]
A      C            G       A
I wanna know can you tell me
  Dmaj7/A       E7#9
I love   to stay

[Chorus]
               E
Take me to the river,
drop me in the water
Push me in the river, a,
dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me

[Bridge]
C#m       A           C#m
   Hug me, squeeze me,   love me,
A
 tease me
Dsus4 E7#9
          Till I can't, till I can't,
                                  E
I can't take no more of it anymore

[Chorus]
Drop me in the river
Push me in the water,
drop me in the river
                                E D A
Washing me down, washing me down

[Verse 3]
E                                     D A
 I don't know why I love you like I do
E                                   D A
 All the troubles you put me through
E                                D A
 Sixteen candles there on my wall
E                                      D
 And here am I the biggest fool of them all

[Pre-Chorus]
A      C            G       A
I wanna know can you tell me
  Dmaj7/A       E7#9
I love   to stay

[Chorus]
               E
Take me to the river,
drop me in the water
Dip me in the river,
drop me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down.
