Drifting Too Far From the Shore

  by Hank Williams   written by Charles Moody  [3/4 time]

Out on the perilous sea

      G7                 C

Where danger so silently creeps

                 C7     F

And storms so violently sweep

       C            G7           C

You're drifting too far from the shore

F                                C

You're drifting too far from the shore

       G7                        C

You're drifting too far from the shore

                    C7      F

Come to Jesus today let Him show you the way

       C            G7           C

You're drifting too far from the shore

Today the tempest rolls high

        G7                    C

And the clouds overshadow the sky

             C7       F

For death is hovering nigh

           C            G7           C

And you're drifting too far from the shore

repeat 2

Why meet a terrible fate

     G7                  C

When mercy so abundantly waits

                 C7       F

Turn back before it's too late

       C            G7           C

You're drifting too far from the shore

repeat  2
