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