[C] 7 lonely days and a dozen [Gm] towns ago I [C] reached out [Gm] one night and [C] you were gone
[Gm] [A#] Don't [F#] know why [G] you'd run, what [Am] you're running to or from
[D] All I know is I want to bring you home
[G]
[C] So I'm walking [Gm] in the rain, [C] thumbing [Gm] for a ride [C] on this lonely [Gm] [C] Kentucky back [Gm] road
I've [Fm] loved you much [G] too long, [C] my love's [Am] too strong [E] to let [D] you go
Never knowing [A] what we're from
[G] [F] [D]
Kentucky rain keeps [C] pouring [G] down
[Em] And up ahead's [C] another town [F] that I've been walking through
With the [C] rain in [Em] my [Am] shoes, [F] searching for you
[G]
In the cold Kentucky [C] [Em] [Am]
[G] [C] rain
[F] Showed [C]
[G] [C] you a [G] photograph of some old grey bearded men
[C] Sitting on a bench [F] outside [Cm] a general store
[Gm] [F] They said yes, [G] she's been here, but their memory [Em] wasn't clear
[D] Was it yesterday?
No, wait, the day [C] before
[G]
[C] Finally got [Gm] a ride [C] with a preacher man who [Gm] asked
Were [C] you bound on such [Gm] a cold dark [C] afternoon?
[Gm] As [Fm] we drove on [G] through the rain, [Am] as he listened, I explained
[D] That he left me with a prayer that I'd [G] find in [C] you
[F]
[D] Kentucky rain keeps [C] pouring down
