[F]
[G] [C] Seven lonely days and a dozen towns [Gm] ago, I [C] reached out [Gm] one night and you [C] were gone.
[Gm] [F] Don't know why [G] you'd run, what [Am] you're running to or [D] from, all I know is I want to bring you home.
[G] So [C] I'm walking in [Gm] the rain, [C] thumbing for [Gm] a ride [C] on this lonely [Gm] [C] Kentucky back [Gm] road.
I've [Fm] loved [C] you much [G] too long, [C] my love's [Am] too strong [E] to [D] let you go.
Never knowing what [A] will grow.
[G] [F] [D]
Kentucky rain keeps falling [C] [G] down, [Em]
and up ahead's another [Am] [G] town [F] that I go walking through.
With [C] the rain in [Em] my [Am] shoes, [F] searching for you,
[G] [C] [Em] [Am]
[G] Kentucky [C] rain.
[F]
[C]
Showed you [G] photographs of some [E] old gray [G] bearded men, [C] sitting on a bench [F] outside a [Gm] general store.
[F] They said, yes, [G] she's been here, but their memory [Am] 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 a [Gm] cold dark [C] afternoon?
[Gm]
[F] As we drove [G] on through the rain, [C] as he listened, I explained, [D] and he left me.
With a prayer that I'd [C] find you, [G] [F]
[D] Kentucky rain keeps falling [C] down, [Em]
and up ahead's [Am] another [E] town [C] that I [F] go walking through.
[C] With the rain in my [Em] [Am] shoes,
[F] searching for [G] you, and the cold [C] Kentucky rain.
