Drifting Too Far From Shore

Bill Monroe

G D G D G

Out on the perilous deep, where danger silently creeps

G C Am G D G

And storms so violently sweep, you're drifting too far from shore

<CHORUS>

C G

Drifting too far from shore

D G

You’re drifting too far from shore

G G7 C Am

Come to Jesus today; let him show you the way

G D G

You’re drifting too far from shore

G D G D G

Today the tempest rolls high, and clouds overshadow the sky

G C Am G D G

Sure death is hovering nigh, you’re drifting too far from shore

<CHORUS>

G D G D G

Why meet a terrible fate? Mercies abundantly wait

G C Am G D G

Turn back before it’s too late. You’re drifting too far from shore

<CHORUS>
