[G]
[C] [G]
The sun goes down on a cloudless night, the [D] tide is in the waters [G] high.
Fish and men [C] are [G] back in town, it's night they'll eat the Greek or drown.
[C] Wait for rain to [G] come down, wait for rain [C] on [G] you now.
[D] It's Utah, [Am] uptown, [C] going [G]
round.
If you're ever in that country, strangest land you'll ever see.
Sun's full, hot grounds on fire, my bad I won't go so high.
Wait [C] for rain to [G] come down, wait [C] for rain on [G] you now.
[D] It's Utah, [Am]
uptown, [C] going [G] round.
[D] [G]
You want to lose those lonely blues, you best put on your dancing shoes.
Bring a make [C] for the [G] water hole, tonight town will rock and roll.
Wait [C] for rain [G] [C] to come down, wait for rain on [G] you now.
[D] It's Utah, [Am] uptown, [C] [G] going round.

[C] [G] My red nose, this ancient land, right in the back of his old head.
See the brawl, the run, the play, thousands dancing, ring the rays.
[C] Can't that rain [G] coming down, hear [C] that rain [G]
tap?
[D] It's Utah, [Am]
uptown, [C] [G] going round.
Can't [C] that rain [G] coming down, hear [C] that rain [G] tap?
On a mighty sound, [D] it's Utah, [Am]
uptown, going [G] round.
Can't that rain coming down, hear that [C] [G] rain tap?
