[G] with a smile I try to greet each early [C]
dawning but [G] they've given me [D] a number for [G] my name
_ [C] and a little rain drops [G] are falling close to me [C] makes the streams and rivers just [G] as muddy as [D] can
it [G] rain and rain and rain in here [C] this morning _ [G] as the majesty may flow to the sea
_ how I wish that I could see my little darlin _ and hold her in my arm just as [D]
before
[G] well she used to tell me [C] every day she loved me but [G] now she doesn't love me anymore
_ [C] she knew I wasn't guilty of [G] this one crime and said that she'd be waiting there [D] for me
_ [G] but she had found somebody [C] else to wonder [G] why the mercy said before _
